    This is one of the best places I've stayed at. Everything was incredible from the greeting by the lovely host to the surrounding areas (3-minute walk to the penguins). You could cook in the apartment and it was brilliantly equipped. The terrace was stunning with great views (photos attached). The bedrooms were extremely quiet with blackout curtains and massive comfy beds. The bath was great too. Highly recommend.
