Beautiful apartment, clearly recently decorated, Lovely bathroom and outdoor courtyard. Sarah was also a lovely and attentive host.
Someone staying in the apartment next door and the wall feels thin so you were a bit…

WhiteUnited KingdomSuperb
Beautiful large room with an even bigger bathroom! Loved the little courtyard out the back. Sarah was a fantastic host.
The only problem I had was the pillows as I suffer with neck arthritis and they were a bit too large…
