The apartment was beautiful! I veritable chateau compared to my tiny Parisian apartment, that's for sure. I would say that the photos are accurate but frankly they don't even do the apartment justice; the breeze that flows through the apartment when you open the doors in the bedroom and the living room is divine!

We loved every aspect of this home -- the kitchen that was equipped in every way (including an oven and a dishwasher) and it was clean and bright. There were metro and tram lines just outside, and a grocery store just down the street. Plenty of storage space for longer stays, and everything you could possibly want on a day to day basis. Washing machine for cleaning laundry, 2 balconies to enjoy the sun and the view (with proper blinds to block the sun if you want to sleep in).

Everything is labelled and noted so REALLY you don't need to worry at all, and Cristina and her husband were so welcoming and eager to help if you need something specific -- they even helped me figure out the closest place to print out my plane ticket for the flight home (however reluctant I was to leave such a beautiful home and city!)
