The apartment was delightful! It was exactly as shown, actually even better. I loved being on the canal and watching the "traffic." I was traveling with my husband and 2 young adult daughters. The apartment was perfect for us to have our own space, yet still be together. Although we didn't cook while there, the kitchen was quite large. The location was very convenient, right in the heart of the activity. Our hosts were very helpful in in getting us oriented and arranging transportation from/to the train station and airport. This apartment is truly special and I would stay there again in a heart beat!
