The appartement is nicely situated, close to the tube, many bus lines and at a walking distance from the canal, which is lovely. Downside: it is on a big street so you'll sleep better with earplugs (Marina left some for us on the nightstand). Marina put a lot of effort in the decoration of the flat, which we truly appreciated. Yet it is an old building and her tasteful work can hardly hide its general state. For those of you who need comfortable beds, that's also a major pitfall. All in all, we ended up with the feeling that this stay was quite overpriced. Besides this, we encountered a few circumstantial problems, and we would have appreciated more flexibility and a better communication with our host.
