FAQ'S

Can I check-in early and/or check out late?

Our team will be busy making the apartment beautiful for you following the check-out of our previous guests. They need until 4pm to prepare everything for you, therefore we’re unable to offer you an earlier check in time. Likewise, 11am is the latest check-out time that we're able to offer. For inspiration for where to spend some time before your arrival, please read this guide.

Can we have visitors to the apartment?

Our apartment is strictly for 4 people only, and only those who are part of your booking, whose full names we receive in advance of your stay are permitted to utilise the property at any time. We’ve made some recommendations in this guide for nearby café’s, bars and restaurants to meet with friends.

When will I receive my check in info?

You'll receive check-in instructions and door codes 24hrs prior to your stay, or as soon as possible if you're a late booking. We require you to have settled all payments and sent all guests full names as well as the lead guests’ ID/photo in order for the check-in information and door code to be sent to you.
