Apartment stays can be a great way to further experience a new city.

Apartments also provide more space and privacy than a hotel room, as is the case with Pretti Apartments where the apartments are 1 bedroom with a fully equipped kitchen. An apartment is a great option for a longer stay but you can also stay one night if you would like to. This highly-rated apartment is a 3-minute walk to the Christmas market.
