I extended my stay because it was amazing! I will happily, gleefully, charge into redundancy and say again: Nothing; no words, no stage left swooning trumpet solo, no grand march down a mighty European Boulevard, no gentle lovers poem, not even a choir of angels serenading paradise from the heavens themselves could possibly hope to proclaim how awesome my stay was. I did not actually meet Karin, but my communication with her was excellent. I DID meet her son, Tobias, and, well, holy dang! He is awesome! The perfect host; attentive, ingratiating, accommodating, and knowledgeable. The house itself is very cozy, in a quiet neighborhood, well-equipped, and wonderfully decorated; it has all the nice hangings and such of an artistic atmosphere without being over-whelming. It is a small hike to the nearest mass-transit, but it is not difficult at all. If I could give 50 stars for this listing, I would. Frankly, oh-mighty-reader of this review, I am a bit envious you are about to stay with these incredible people.
