We stayed two nights at Annabel’s apartment and from the initial booking to post departure, communication was excellent. Annabel was prompt in her responses and accommodating in many ways that took much of the hassle and worry out of traveling overseas.
As for the physical space, it was clean and warm, yet stylish with all the comforts of home. The location was also excellent and the host’s recommendations were spot on. We enjoyed two dinners out at suggested restaurants and found Annabel’s descriptions accurate and the neighborhood vibrant without being noisy. After walking the city all day (which you can do from the apartment’s location) it felt as though the immediate neighborhood had its own charm that made it familiar after being out all day.
There’s enough to think about while traveling so it was nice to have a host who appreciated the friendly touch that makes you feel welcome.
