Reviews
Urša from Slovenia (10/10)
The nicest and most helpful host I ever met. We liked the apartment and its interior and also the vicinity of the public transport.
Karen from United Kingdom (9/10)
It was a great location as we were there for Dodgeball World championships at Rieffisson Sportspark – a 20 min walk away. Near to town centre but in a very quiet area. Bettina the host was great and really helpful. We would happily stay here again. We also discovered an outdoor pool nearby – just 10.min walk, and it was much needed due to intense heat when we were there.

I was overall amazing. The apartments were clean, everything was provided for us and whenever we needed something, the owners were there to help us and guide us. I have no bad words for this accommodation and the owners, only compliments.
