Our stay at Bernard's place was better than expected. Bernard was very helpful and a gentleman that knows how to keep his place clean. The apartment was central, just about 15 minutes from the central station by foot and close to public transportation and other enjoyable things like cafés and restaurants.
If you are a light sleeper, the place might not be as suitable, as you can here the wooden floors when moving around and the streets can be lively at night.
Other than that we would more than recommend Bernard's place. Hope to see you again :)
