Rooms

2 room types · 20–30 m²

Start House offers two apartment types, both for a maximum of two guests, each with one bedroom, one large king-size bed and a private bathroom. The Standard Apartment measures 20 m² and the Deluxe Apartment 30 m², so the Deluxe is the more spacious of the two. Both come with air conditioning, soundproof walls, a flat-screen TV, free toiletries and a hairdryer, and the bathroom has a walk-in shower and a bidet.

The main difference lies in the outdoor space and the entertainment. The Standard Apartment has a patio, while the Deluxe Apartment has an outdoor dining area and a flat-screen TV with streaming services. Each apartment has its own private entrance, so each unit is self-contained, which suits one or two travellers who want their own base during a short stay.
