Home truths

    You'll have access to the communal swimming pool and on-site gym here, shared with the building's other residents. Children will need to be supervised around the pool area at all times.

    This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay.

    The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.

    This apartment is overlooked by neighbouring homes, so it doesn't feel completely private.

    This host requires your check-in to be within 3-5 days from when the last booking ends. If you are unsure if your dates will work or for help finding alternatives, please contact our Matchmaking Team.

    Please note that the building amenities such as the pool and gym may have specific hours of operation and might not be available year-round.
