The apartment is in a nice quiet residential area within an few minutes walk to the train station and a supermarket. The apartment is warm, clean & had everything we needed to ensure a comfortable stay. The host kindly provided us with a bottle of wine on arrival which I thought was a nice touch. Unfortunately we were not informed that the washing machine was not working, even though the host knew about the issue. We only found this out after we washed a load & the kitchen floor flooded. This was a huge inconvenience, a complete waste of our holiday time cleaning the mess up & very disappointing to have to spend our valuable time at the laundromat. The host offered no remedy, or repair & the only solution offered was the laundromat.
