Two residents reviewed it: one calls it a "Pleasant and cosy neighbourhood", quiet, with everything nearby, though parking is a hassle. Another says: "My neighbourhood is nice, cosy and pleasant." They appreciate the amenities but note litter and occasional mice, and that housing is unaffordable. The neighbourhood Centrum-West is lively and central, but not without its challenges.

Quiet neighbourhood with everything you need nearby. The only hassle is finding parking spaces. There isn't often nuisance or anything.
Auto-translated to English by AIMy neighbourhood is a pleasant, accessible environment. There are many amenities nearby and the shops are easily reachable. However, there is often litter on the street and we have occasionally had mice in the neighbourhood as a result. Placing more bins could possibly prevent this. However, there are very few houses available and everything is unaffordable. Housing could therefore be better.
