This was a fabulous house and duplex for our large family of 16. Both were very clean and were exactly as seen in the photos...no surprises. Everything was in excellent working order but we never could quite figure out the dryer. One thing to note is that the apartment duplex is on the top floors of the building across the courtyard from the house. I guess that was the only surprise as we were thinking it too had access from the ground floor. The beds were very comfortable and we were lacking for nothing. We had 2 small babies with us so the stairs were a big concern and fortunately, there were no mishaps. The host was so kind to have 2 baby beds available and set up for our arrival. The location was perfect! The house was on a quite residential street and only a short walk to the metro. There were several shops close by including a bakery, butcher, grocery and several restaurants. This home was a true oasis for our family reunion. We would definitely recommend this house!
