Reviews
Zsolt from Hungary – 12 August 2023 (9/10)
A small apartment with very decorative interieur. Some antique or handmade parts of the furniture. 10 minutes walk to the center of the Old Town. You can park the car in the backyard. Kind host.
What could be improved: Just small things. For example the apartement is on the basement so you have to go downstairs at the entrance and you must keep your head down if you are tall. But you can be used to it easily.Kamile from Lithuania – 27 September 2024 (9/10)
The place was really nicely decorated, had everything we needed and close the city center.
Denys from United Kingdom – 19 August 2024 (9/10)
Everything was perfect
What could be improved: Nothing to complain aboutVioleta from Lithuania – 1 April 2024 (9/10)
Great location, close to old town and sea
Michal from Slovakia – 10 March 2024 (9/10)
Good location in a nice and safe neighborhood.
Bunk beds were comfy.
There were towels and shampoo in the bathroom.
The appartment was nicely decorated.
The best value for money. You cant have 5* expectations if you pay so cheap so you ignore small details.
What could be improved: We could not heat the place.
Missing stove.
You can hear when the neigbours flush the toilet and follow sonically the way of their s…t.Kalnina from Latvia – 30 October 2023 (9/10)
Great location and appartment design. Good communication with the owner. Good sleep – great matresses and excellent super warm blankets.
Very clean and well designed space for a short stay. Comfortable.
What could be improved: Didn't realize when booking that the appartment is at basement level. Or is it considered semi-basement?
Quite a lot of light is seeping inside through the blinds during the night.
Several appliances – air purifier and de-humidifier are making some background noise, but can be turned off during the night.
All four sleeping places are in the same small bedroom – it's a double bunkbed.Aistė from Lithuania – 14 August 2023 (9/10)
Good location, lovely stay.
Family from Lithuania – 7 August 2023 (9/10)
Very lovely and clean apartment in the charming Kalamaja neighbourhood, near old town. There is everything you might need, maybe except for the stove. But with all the amazing places to eat in Tallinn, there's no really need for it.
As it's a semi-basement apartment, there is no much dailight, but for us it was perfectly ok, we didn't spend time inside during the day, anyway.
Recommended for those who are looking for a non typical place to stay.Yilun from Taiwan – 22 July 2023 (9/10)
It's near the old town.
The apartment is lovely.
Tiina let us check in early.
