we stayed 10 days with a small kid and it was ok. Location wins over everything! Louis was responsive and his friend brought us an iron and kitchen towels when we asked. probably if we asked for a frying pan they would bring it too but we have already bought one. This flat needs a woman's touch if you know what I mean. and a better cleaner.
