Richard was a wonderful host. We really appreciated the goodies and wine he had for us when we checked in. The flat is cozy and well decorated. The mattress was a little too firm but, of course, that's a matter of personal preference. At one point we lost WiFi connection and Rickard responded immediately, calling the company and getting it running again in a very short time. Unfortunately, it went out again but apparently that was a system-wide problem that lasted for the rest of our stay. Of course, that wasn't Richard's fault but it was problematic none the less as I had to sit in the library for a morning getting client work completed. One word of caution....the flat is in a "dead zone" for Verizon wireless. We rarely had more than one bar on our phones and many times had no bars at all. It wasn't a problem when we had the internet as we simply connected to WiFi calling, but once we lost the internet we also lost a reliable connection for our phone. Again, this is not Richard's fault but be aware if you plan to stay longer than a few days. All in all, though, we felt this flat was a good value for the money and are very grateful to Richard for being such an attentive host.
