First of all, communication was great. Anytime I had a question I would message him and he would respond with advice. His place is only about 5 minute walk from train. We stayed in the 2 story apartment with 2 seperate sleepingl areas. We had our own little terrace. No view of canal, but we were out all day so we would shower and straight to bed when we returned. Everything was very clean and tidy.
