Our month long stay at Michael and Tine's place was fantastic! The apartment is big, bright and very well outfitted. And it has character. Lots of it. We spent many contented hours in the apartment, relaxing and working. The kitchen has everything you need if you feel like cooking and the neighbourhood has many great restaurants if you don't (try Thai Me Up for excellent Thai food). The beds were firm and comfortable. The apartment is on a main street so if you're looking for complete quiet, this isn't the place for you, but we found that the street noise was not a problem. (I used earplugs. Urs didn't need them.) The location is great for walking to the city's many attractions and is very close to the Forum Metro Station. We particularly loved how close the apartment is to the lakes (just 2 blocks) which are wonderful to walk around. We highly recommend Michael and Tine's place and wouldn't hesitate to return on a future trip.
