The apartment was just as described in the ad. It reminded us of a country house of a grandmother somewhere in the village. The location is good, close to the subway and shops. Also, there is a lake and a nice park to walk around. The stairs were a bit of trouble for us because we have a kid and a dog. But we should have thought about it ourselves in advance. Lucie's mother and grandmother welcomed us and even though they couldn't speak English fluently, we overcame it together with the help of emotions and signs. They actually live in the same house but in a separate side of it, so should you need any assistance, they most likely will be somewhere around.
