We were unable to meet Ludo since he was away for a few days but he was very good at communicating through email, he also provided a good guide to the local area. Ludo had a friend of his waiting for us to check in who give us all the information we would need about the apartment, he was also very helpful with advice about places to see that we would otherwise not have visited and really enjoyed. He also gave Ludo a call on his phone so that he could welcome us to his apartment and answer any questions.
The apartment was exactly as the pictures show and as described, it is clean and roomy with a separate bedroom that has a large comfortable bed. The shower was great with good water pressure and endless hot water. It is also on the ground floor so anybody with mobility issues will not have to worry about stairs (there is one step at the outside door to the street though if your in a wheelchair). The only minor issue was a slight musty smell but there are dehumidifiers that help with that.
The apartment is in a great location with a grocery store just around the corner and a bakery a minute down the street, there is a metro stop about a 2 minute walk away and the train station is about a 10 minute walk. As other reviewers have mentioned there are many shops and restaurants close by.
We would definitely stay in here again.
