Natacha’s apartment is a light filled, sunny, airy comfortable place to stay. Everything about check in was easy and Natacha was a wonderful gracious host who was very responsive to queries.
The location was terrific, so close to many places of interest and public transport and very accessible to the city and the airport. It has a fabulous Japanese restaurant, wonderful coffee place and a really yummy middle eastern cafe just a few steps away. The beds were probably the most comfortable I’ve ever encountered in a airbnb, though the pillows were a bit lumpy and didn’t do the beds justice. Spacious and interesting with glorious windows you could open for fresh air and which allowed us to watch the spectacular painted sky sunsets every evening. The kitchen is well stocked though only small pots and two tiny pans would perhaps make cooking for more than two a bit of a challenge. The only negative about the place was the early morning traffic noise, the night time noise from shouting outside diners in the cafes opposite, and the persistent thumping of a child running up and down the hall in the upstairs apartment. This may not be an issue for many especially if you’re out and about most of the time. The other thing worth mentioning is the amount of personal stuff stacked in both bedrooms - we found it disconcerting and quite cramping - but others may not and I’ve been told this is not unusual in AirBnbs in Europe or the US, where folk are renting our their own homes for short periods and leave all their possessions in situ. Because we weren’t aware this was to be the case we were a little surprised. Having said that we loved most everything about staying there.
