Alexandre’s place worked out great for us! It’s in an older building (but this is Europe - that’s half the beauty!), however the apartment itself is plenty modern. The bathroom especially is very updated and the entire place is outfitted with anything you could need - from an iron to a hairdryer and all the kitchen amenities, including a toaster and even basic oils and such. The neighborhood and any neighbors we passed were extremely friendly and it was just a short walk from some of the “must see” places.
One note for anyone hyper sensitive to noise or if you’re a light sleeper: a few times we could hear noise from another apartment, but it was pretty light - nothing out of the ordinary for multi-floor units. And one side of the bed did make a lot of noise when the person on that side shifted. The other side was fine, so if you’re just one or heavy sleepers or just don’t move much, you’re likely fine! But just a heads up for any light sleepers out there.
