Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 children ages 9 & 11) had a pleasant stay at Des’s apartment! The apartment is located within a 10 minute walk from Mile End underground (zone 2) and we felt safe walking through Meath Gardens along the canals to get there. The apartment is a good size, modern, comfortably furnished and has a balcony with views of the canals.
Des is a thoughtful host, who provided milk, bread, juice and an array of breakfast items upon our arrival. This was gratefully received after a 30 hour travel time from Australia.
Des stayed in contact with us throughout our stay to check if we needed anything. He also provided a local car parking permit which was useful. Halfway through our 2 & ½ week stay, Des cleaned the apartment, changing bed linen and towels and even restocked cereals, milk and juice!!
When we had a little trouble with not enough hot water, Des changed the heating timer and reminded us about the water tank boost if there wasn’t enough hot water – so we had lovely hot showers the remaining holiday.
The only small improvement we would suggest is changing the front door lock as it was quite fiddly when trying to lock.
We would totally recommend staying at Des’s apartment and thank Des for his hospitality!!
