We found the apartment to be very comfortable, beautifully decorated, with everything we needed for our stay. The coffee maker took a little bit of getting used to, and we found the oven to be less efficient than what we used to at home, but regardless, we were able to comfortably prepare meals in the apartment throughout the week. We had excellent communication with the host. kitchen was well stocked with all the needed accessories. At one point, the lock to the front door stopped working, and she had a repairman at the apartment within hours to fix it for us. Highly recommend.
