I was greeted by Jamie, Helene's husband. He was very kind and helpful throughout my stay, and was interested in hearing about my experience each day.
The location of their apartment is absolutely perfect. Access to bus, public bikes and metro is only a short walk away. There are also many nice restaurants and shops nearby. I felt very safe in the neighborhood.
Excellent value overall and a very pleasant experience.
The only thing to beware is the internet access is not very fast, but maybe it's only a temporary problem during my stay. Everything else more than made up for the internet speed.
