I stayed at Violas apartament with my boyfriend in October. We didn't get the chance to meet her but we met her boyfriend who helped us with the check-in. The apartment is exactly as it is described: the staircase that connects the kitchen to the rest of the apartment is external and because of that it's exposed to the elements.
It was good overall, but I have two things to point out, and the worst of it was the cleanliness. The floor of the house was not clean and the bathroom neither. The second thing to point out is that there is a window above the kitchen door that has no curtains and the neighbours can see inside, from the pull-out-couch to the bathroom door.
The house is enough for a couple, we liked the area, the central heating works very well and Viola was very helpful with the early check-in.
