We had the privilege of being the first people to stay in this apartment. We can wholeheartedly recommend it. It is not only beautiful, with a nice view of a great looking building, but also Andrea is the most wonderful host you could ever hope to find. We have stayed at Airbnb’s several times and she has been, by far, the most caring and hospitable, and the most attentive host we have ever had. The apartment really is beautiful and it really does have its own washing machine, which works fantastically. It also has a small section by the washing machine to dry the clothes on a rack. It’s not a lot of space, but it works. The shower is also small, but nevertheless I enjoyed using it because the water pressure was good and the space is nice and clean. The only major drawback about the place, for me, was the small cooktop. I had difficulty making dinner because there are only two spaces to cook on. Nevertheless, I would probably put up with it and stay there again because the location is fabulous. The value on this space is very good for what you get. Also, I should mention there is an elevator. It is small, but it works well, and seems to be well maintained. I recommend staying here.
