We had an absolutely wonderful time in Stockholm at Elsa's apartment which is (without a doubt) the nicest place we've ever stayed at through airbnb. The apartment was not only impeccably and tastefully furnished (with cozy, colorful vintage-y furnishings from around the world), it was larger than I expected, spotlessly clean, bright and airy (I love the big windows throughout), and was a lovely place to come home to every day. In fact, the hardest part about Elsa's apartment was having to leave it at the end of our stay :) There were so many things I loved about Elsa's apartment, including (a) her big, comfy bed, (b) the balcony where we sat and enjoyed the night air after a long day of traipsing around Stockholm with our baby daughter in tow, (c) the elevator in the building (which was incredibly useful for our stroller/pram) and (d) the layout of the apartment, with the front rooms (living room, kitchen) facing the street and the back rooms (bedroom, bathroom) facing the quieter inner courtyard. The only real challenge for us (with a one year old) were the short flight of stairs separating the front rooms from the back, which was a bit scary with a toddler (our baby did fall down the stairs once, but luckily she landed on her butt :). Otherwise, we had a perfect stay at Elsa's. Elsa herself was warm and welcoming and even made room for our clothes and things in her closet and cupboards (which many airbnb hosts do not do), which was a very nice touch since I love being able to unpack my bags and feel at home when I'm on the road (rather than feel like I'm living out of my suitcase the whole time cause there's no where to put my things). All in all, we had a wonderful time at Elsa's place and hope to stay there again on our next trip to Stockholm.
