I had high expectation for Claudia’s place because of the high rating, but her place was far better and beyond.
Convenience:
It is really in the central, 15 mins from the train stations and every else are 10 mins away. For a solo female traveler myself, it was perfect. I could have a late dinner and drinks, and don’t have to worry about my safety going home at night. It also means lots of good restaurants, bakeries and cafes around. As my friend found out on the last day, literally 3 minutes around the corner, there is a Michelin star restaurant!
Comfort:
Claudia’s apartment was beautiful, three levels, you can have the first floor to yourself. The second floor is the kitchen and living room with an outdoor courtyard, the last is Claudia’s personal space. I arrived just after midday and smell of food in the courtyard was just amazing. The high ceiling, the vinyl collection, the books and all the traveling books and maps in the house adds so much character to the place. The room itself was spacious for one, and definitely enough room if you have two people. It was comfortable and everything was clean. At night it was quite chilly, the extra blanket kept me warm. I had my own bathroom with a shower. Claudia provided not one but 3 towels for everything! The thoughtfulness!
Communication:
Claudia was very kind and flexible with the checkout time. She was quick on messages and makes sure you are settle in properly. There are all the traveling tips, maps, travel books if needed in the room right on the desk.
I would definitely stay again
