What recent reviews say

Facilities and WiFi are reliable, but elevator delays frustrate guests badly. High-floor units face 15-30 minute waits on a single shared staircase.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Families value the clean, spacious rooms and swimming pool, though elevator delays consistently frustrate guests. Rooms often exceed expectations with comfort and space for groups. The lift system struggles under the building's occupancy, with waits over 20 minutes reported.

Spacious apartments in a well-located building with good amenities (pool, gym, kitchen, washing machine). The main frustration is lifelong waits for elevators, sometimes 20-60 minutes, plus inconsistent cleaning at check-in. Staff are generally friendly when service is good, but housekeeping standards are unreliable.
