Liked: Cleanliness
The positives: it was convenient to the train and bus stations, and close enough to the Old Town to walk there. There was a Carrefour Express down the street, and a larger Carrefour near the train station. I liked being on the top floor as no one was above me, and the wi-fi worked well. The negatives: Being on the top floor (4th) meant I had to lug my suitcase up seven flights of stairs; the apartment info states 'no lift/elevator', but I don't think it mentions the apartments are on the top floor. As for the studio, the "bed" was actually a couch with the cushions removed, the pillow was lumpy and seemed to be half-filled, and there was no bedside table (there was room for one). The paint on the counter was chipped in places, making it look worn and unappealing. The shower drain was slow so that I ended up standing in several inches of water while taking a 3-4 min. shower. Lastly, I suggested to reception via email (there wasn't anyone in the building, to my knowledge) that providing a toaster, a tea towel, and hangers would be great additions. I received a reply telling me (1) to look for the toaster because there should be one in the studio (I'd looked through all cupboards before making my suggestion), (2) hangers are in the wardrobe but some people might take them (there was no wardrobe in the studio, and definitely no hangers), and (3) paper towels and a kitchen towel are provided (the paper towels were really cheap and the kitchen towel was more of a re-usable wipe).
