John's flat was not only very inviting, relaxing, beautifully decorated, and clean, but also equipped with lovely breakfast foods and a bottle of wine. The towels were plentiful and fluffy, the beds were comfortable, and the modern kitchen well-stocked with pots, pans, plates, coffee and tea pots, silverware and serving utensils. In short, this home-away-from-home met all of our desires, tucked away from the hustle-bustle of the city within a private, garden courtyard, complete with tranquil koi pond and fountain. And we cannot rave enough about John as the perfect host. He guided us to local events and restaurants, and his taste was excellent, because we thoroughly enjoyed his recommendations, and his charming company. We left reluctantly, but with fond memories and a new friend, to boot!
