Ideal Family Apartment
Review Submitted: November 1, 2008
Date of Stay: October 2008
Usually we use Sheraton or Westin hotels, as we where taking our 4 year old grandson for a short holiday, we opted for an apartment which meant a little more freedom.
The arrangements for our arrival were excellent, within half an hour we where in the apartment (cab took us straight to the door). The couple meeting us were very helpful and did not leave until they were completely satisfied we knew everything applicable.
The apartment was excellent, he enjoyed every minute. Daily we took a morning walk down to the Centre (one morning we did take the number 28 tram which he also really enjoyed). From the Centre we did numerous trips, zoo, oceanerio, cable cars, sight seeing tram, all ideal for our grandson and ourselves.
Normally we chose to eat at one of the numerous restaurants in the Centre which have great selections, however, we never missed a night at the open air restaurant just around the corner from the apartment to enjoy a glass of wine. The people here are very friendly and helpful.
The shops and supermarket local to the apartment are very good and helpful.
Security in the local area was fine, we did notice however, on two occassions whilst in the Centre, pickpockets at large, you just have to be aware and you do not have a problem.
Overall a really enjoyable stay and ideal with children, although with young children you do have to be careful with some of the narrow pavements.
