Although Veronica wasn't able to meet us herself, she had a lovely friend do the honours and with great grace as we were over an hour later arriving than we had planned. We were met at a convenient spot as the area is densely populated with a number of apartment blocks and we ( who had already gotten lost!) were in danger of losing our way.
The apartment is fabulous - a feast for the eye, so beautifully and artistically decorated, but not at all to the point of making us feel uncomfortable there. On the contrary , I had a fleeting desire to ditch the concert and sit on the soft sofas with a cuppa looking out over the river and it's array of night lights.. A wonder..
But we didn't miss out concert - we arrived home after a brilliant show and enjoyed some Earl Gray tea and the view before retiring to a very comfortable bed.
A lovely shower was had in the morning and we left the apartment refreshed, in the hands of a cheerful lady who set to making it ship shape for another arrival. We were sorry to leave as our trip was very short, but so delighted to have found a wonderful spot to spend the night. We breakfasted right next door in the supermarket with its on bakery and seating area and had fabulous coffee and hot out of the oven pastries! Thank you Veronica and airbnb!
BTW the area is fantastic: very clean, cosmopolitan, wonderful theatres x 2 a short walk away and loads of places to eat. We had the BEST VALUE and most delicious meal in J2 Grill and Sushi on the Quay, a short walk from the apartment. Highly recommended.
