The apartment is tastefully and practically furnished, the kitchen has the equipment you need for cooking and the included parking space is really needed in this area. Beach and canals are very close - the location is perfect. The apartment is recommendable for family vacation. However, in our 14 days of family vacation we had 9 days of unexpected noisy reconstruction of the building with the apartment located on the ground level and 3 days of plumbing issues. Why 4 stars? The location and the apartment are really great and perfectly suited for family vacation. Lauren and the owner of the building are very friendly and gave us a reasonable deposit of our stay due to the reconstruction issues . They helped us immediately when we had questions. They were very sorry for the reconstruction issues that took unexpected extents. Thanks to Lauren and the owner.
