Elisabeth Downtown Apartments by FirstHost
Best location for restaurants! We had a great time there, the apartment is spacious and welcoming. Idea for improvements: the bed on one of the bedrooms was quite hard. Also the oven/microwave was in demo mode so we could not use it. Overall, I highly recommend it!
