This was my first experience with airbnb, and it was a really positive one. Werner was a responsive and gracious host. He responded promptly to several email questions I had in the weeks prior to my arrival, and he was waiting for me as planned when I arrived. He patiently gave me a tour of the apartment -- most importantly, making sure I had the credentials to log onto his WiFi network! He also set up an English-language channel of CNN as a default on his cable TV for me. The apartment was clean and as advertised. I loved the location, as it was a very short walk to many great restaurants, cafes, pubs, museums, shopping and public transportation. I would stay there again.

I gave it a solid 4-star rating. The washing machine is in the basement and there is no dryer (which was consistent with the listing). Had the washer been in the apartment, along with a dryer, I would have provided a 5-star review.
