PIS Apartment in District 1 has two room types, both self-catering and both with a private bathroom and air conditioning, so the difference lies mainly in size and layout. The Standard Queen Room is the smaller option at 30 m², with a double bed and a balcony over the city. The One-Bedroom Apartment is the larger one at 60 m², with a separate bedroom and a living room.

Both types share a kitchen with a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave and kitchenware, a flat-screen TV, soundproofing and free toiletries. The bathrooms have walk-in showers. The larger apartment adds a dining table, a seating area and parquet floors, which gives more room to spread out during a longer stay, while the smaller room is the choice for guests who want the balcony.

Every unit is fully self-catering. The kitchen has a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, electric kettle and kitchenware, and a washing machine sits in each apartment, so you can cook and do laundry without going out. The bathrooms come with a shower, free toiletries and towels, and a hairdryer is provided.

The rooms are air-conditioned and fitted with a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a desk and a seating area, and the apartments have soundproofed walls and parquet or hardwood floors. Free WiFi is available in the rooms. The building also offers daily housekeeping, 24-hour security and a terrace, and it is non-smoking throughout.

The entire unit is wheelchair accessible, and the upper floors are reached by lift. No parking is available at the property, so guests arriving by car should plan for a public car park nearby.
