Mark was a wonderful host, meeting us out front of the apartment to let us in and show us around. It was so nice of him to sit down with us and point out attractions and local "gems" on a map. We tried a few of his suggestions and all of them were excellent! Mark's apartment is very large and was more than enough space for 2 of us. We didn't cook anything, but it seemed the kitchen was equipped if you wished to do so. The location is great - an easy walk to almost all attractions and tram lines right out the front door. The shower is typical in Europe, but for North Americans may seem strange - it is more like a bathtub with a hand held shower head. We managed to get the hang out it without completely soaking the bathroom! In all, it was a great stay and we would recommend Mark's apartment.
