Reviews
Marina from Spain – 10 January 2023 (9/10)
Cheap price for such a cosy apartment. It was nice and warm when we arrived (even though it was very cold and snowy outside). The beds were comfy and big. The WiFi was working perfectly. We did not use the kitchen, but it looked pretty functional.
What could be improved: There could be more pressure (more water) in the shower and the pillows could be more comfy, but nothing major. The area where it is located is not the prettiest, but it is fairly close to the center (approx 7 min walking) and to several transportation options (approx 5 min walk).Steven from United Kingdom – 5 March 2025 (9/10)
Fantastic appartment, very spacious. Clean and tidy and great value for money. Short walk to the old town
Maryna from Ukraine – 16 January 2025 (9/10)
The big cozy apartment is right next to the heart of Tallin. You can find anything you want around – supermarkets, restaurants, shopping malls and of course, sightseeings. I was totally glad to find so nice place! Thank you for awesome holidays ☺️
Prasanth from Sri Lanka – 25 December 2024 (9/10)
The location is walking distance to old town. The entire apartment is very clean and spacious. The owner is always available. Our baby enjoyed the stay cz she could walk everywhere. Since the kitchen utensils were available we could cook for our baby as well.
What could be improved: Better to keep a high chair for babiesAntti from Finland – 19 December 2024 (9/10)

What could be improved: Nothing that I didn’t like, just would have been useful to have information on bins/recycling facilities.Andreas from Austria – 29 October 2024 (9/10)
