We weren't sure what to expect at first- we arrived late at night. But the neighborhood was just fine. It was super easy to walk into town. There was 2 euro parking around the corner (from 9a-6p). Now for the apartment...The cooking area was on the smaller side but we had no problem making full breakfasts and simple dinners. They had everything you could need, plus some. Now to the 3 things we always look for and we find to be the most important: 1)The bed was very comfy- neither terribly hard nor soft. 2) The entire place (down to the baseboards) was sparkling clean. I feel this is an understatement. 3) The wifi was strong. Some really nice extras: The pillows were good and they had extra blankets because I'm always cold. We were able to find English speaking shows on TV. Far from a requirement but always a nice touch. Now for the hosts: They responded to any messages immediately. They were super kind by meeting us so late and directing us to parking and help us with our baggage.
