Our stay was amazing. We came from Australia for a family wedding and needed extra accommodation to fit everyone in. The property was spacious, modern and so handy to town and train. It had everything we needed for a weeks stay including parking. Albert was responsive with check in and any requests or questions. It was also a security building which was great. I would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay again
