We have stayed in quite a few airbnb flats and apartments and Simeon's place is probably the closest to perfection so far. It is a beautiful apartment with nice old features and modern aspects too. There is plenty of space, it is warm and comfortable, there is an office room, the balcony is nice for fresh air, and the kitchen is bright and happy (and fully equipped to enjoy cooking). The lighting in every room is well thought-out, even in the hall, with the very special glass cupboard unit. The bathroom is, just, superb. As well as being a beautiful flat, it is so well maintained (everything was so neat and clean) and well stocked (plenty of clean towels and bedding, the kitchen with everything we needed and more, including six different types and sizes of coffee makers and a brilliant milk-frother! a selection of slippers, and a very nice TV and hifi in the living room). Although the flat is on a street on one side and courtyard on the other, it is probably the quietest we have ever experienced due to the double/secondary glazing. Very tranquil for a good night's sleep. Finally, the internet was reliable and consistent and the wifi accessible throughout the entire flat.
We didn't meet Simeon, but his communication was always very friendly, quick and helpful. We were met at the apartment by Sarah, and by Daniela when we left, both of whom were very nice and helpful.
Thank you Simeon for such a beautiful place to stay. We loved it and will definitely come back.
