We never actually met the host and instead let ourselves in. It would have been nice to have a more personalized welcome that included information on what to see in the city. However, the apartment was very nice. It was very simple and straight to the point but the little fake fireplace was kind of fun to sit in front of. The kitchen was handy as well, including the washer. The only downside was the bed and the sheets were not very comfortable. All that being said, this apartment had a great location and was pretty decent, with a few modifications it would be great!
