From booking to check-out, Vladimir was fantastic. This trip was actually a sibling trip for four siblings and two of their friends ages 16-20. Vladimir was accommodating, communicative and accepting of the age group, as well as helpful with questions about the trip. He even sent a YouTube video on how to get into the apartment and had music playing when they arrived.
And the apartment - oh my goodness. It has everything you need, and this neat rooftop oasis with a living flower wall, swing, and chairs for relaxing. Most mornings the group went outside, waking up to the atmosphere of the neighborhood or finished their evening there before calling it a day.
The apartment has a detached garage, so you can park in there or park right on the street. As this group planned on Uber for the majority of the trip, they parked in the garage for the week, and when they left, they realized they had left an inverter plugged in all week, leaving the battery dead. A quick call to Vladimir, and he was texting neighbors to see who was available to help jump the battery, and while they were at work (10 am on a Friday)- he assured the group that he was flexible and not concerned that they couldn't leave right up at 11am so they weren't stressed waiting for a tow company to jump the car.
Quote from my daughter to add to this review: "Thank you so much for having us, we couldn’t ask for a better place to stay. We felt safe and relaxed. The house was lovely and some of us are definitely decorating our rooms/future houses with your apartment as inspiration. Thank you so much again for the opportunity."
Seriously, if you are thinking of booking, look here. As a mom of two of the siblings who went on this trip, I was at ease and they had an amazing time.
