Staying in Rick's apartment is not a stay, but an experience. If you need a place to go to get away from your daily boring routine, to make peace with yourself, to actually learn and absorb a lesson in life, I would highly recommend this place.
Rick is a person, who can get you talking, give you perspectives which you would not think of, can make you feel that you can come up with a solution for everything and there is nothing to be afraid off in the journey of life. Rick is just great.
The house is perfect with a view of the river as shown in the photos on his airbnb page, only much better. It is large, warm, comfortable and absolutely central to most of the spots in the city. There are lovely restaurants all around and for home eaters, the kitchen is well equipped and has all the ingredients needed. If you need anything more, there is a supermarket just across the road.
There are simple but beautiful things around the house that you would love and keep discovering like an old typewriter, a wooden carving or an old style tape recorder and all the paintings. They just carry a positive energy around you and keep giving you a series of small smiles every time you find one.
The location of the house makes it a perfect place to stroll around the river and the older parts of town. Highly recommended for a very unique, artistic, peaceful and self realisation sort of stay.
