I must say, that after getting used to so many airbnb hosts not actually welcoming you, it was a lovely change to actually get to meet Nicole. She is quite possibly the perfect host. We had a lovely welcome to the house by Nicole who went to so much effort to make us feel at home.
The apartment is spacious, warm (a touch too warm at times but that's a minor niggle) and welcoming, with all the amenities you could possibly want already laid out for you. It's close to many local shops and restaurants and has a bus at the end of the street to take you to the closest metro station (or you can walk, about 15 minutes away).
Thanks Nicole and Merry Christmas.
