Fantastic location, convenient and secure parking, cute garden level configuration. Unfortunately, the bathroom drainage pipes were emitting unpleasant sewage odors, enough to diminish the quality of our stay.

We're so glad that Lisa and Roman had an enjoyable weekend at our apartment.. They were out and about all time, with them were their three tiny dogs. All were amazingly quiet, we never heard a peep. When they left, everything was in great shape. We would love to have this family of five again. Lesley and Jon

This neighborhood is wonderful, and to have a parking spot there is so helpful. But what's most impressive is the amount of detail put into the apartment itself: it has everything a couple could need. Very nice hosts, also.
