Frederique was at the apartment when we arrived and very welcoming. She showed me around the apartment, where the linens were and how to use the appliances. We had a little bit of a language barrier and I ended up contacting her later to find some cleaning supplies. It may be helpful if she could make herself a little check off list as she orients her guests to the place, but this was a minor inconvenience. Frederique was always easy to get in contact with and made us feel very at home. The apartment is very residential and we ended up renting a car to get around the city and beyond, but this was with three adults and a baby. Multiple bus changes with all our gear would not have made financial sense or helped our mental health. Otherwise, the neighborhood was great, very clean and fresh. There is a train track behind the house that wasn't much of a disturbance but at the time they were building a privacy wall which kind of interrupted the solitude of her beautiful garden during the day. The nights were magical.
