We were welcomed by Arthur, Barbara's sin, who checked in with us several times to be sure we were comfortable and happy. He also gave us great suggestions for places to go and restaurants. We found the apartment to be clean and as described in an unbelievable neighborhood. We loved the atmosphere in the neighborhood and the views of the canal from the living room. It's location made it easy to walk to the central station and museums. Thank you Barbara for opening your lovely apartment to us. We already are looking forward to our next trip!
