Response from VrboOwner on 19 Jan, 2026
Thanks so much for taking the time to write a detailed review. It really helps me improve the service. The window s sadly are very old and the building doesn’t allow me to change them (due to the historic nature of the building). However, I am able to seal them from the cold and cushion them from rattling.
I am glad you had a pleasant stay overall.
