We were 6 friends staying in Serena's apartment and we had such a lovely time there! It is a really beautiful and personal space, full of warmth, and makes for a super homely, private feeling. Being around all of Serena's books and other treasures from all over the world also makes one realize that it is a true act of trust, to let people into your home like this. The essence of what Airbnb should be, we all agreed! Aside from all this, it was totally spacious enough for all of us without ever feeling crammed, beds are comfortable (and the linen beautiful!), the kitchen is nice and well equipped. Serena had even thought of getting us some breakfast, and went through the trouble of getting us an extra set of keys on our first day, which was highly appreciated. The neighbourhood is nice and lively, and Serena took time to show us all we needed to know on a map, to make sure we wouldn't be lost anywhere in the city. She is such a great host! The only thing I am sad about is that we didn't have more time, to stay there longer. To anyone who books with Serena, you are lucky! And to Serena, thank you so much! It was a pleasure meeting you, and staying at your place.
