It was very easy to relax and enjoy the apartment, once you had made the initial six floor climb with suitcase! Vladimir communicated really well and when I had a concern re a smell, he was very quick to send someone around to see if they could sort it out. I enjoyed being able to prepare food in the kitchen which had most items needed for cooking. The lovely gesture of leaving a bottle of wine was special - just a shame I am not a red wine drinker! While the street/s can be quite busy, the windows must have good soundproofing as when closed it was lovely and quiet. The view was special and I enjoyed lying in bed with my coffee while watching the world go by. All in all, a great time.
