    11/10. The 3rd floor apartment looked like a doll house! Very clean, equipped with everything you may need to cook there. Just keep in mind that there is no elevator.

    "Wow" place!! It is a former primary school from 1900, restored. The apartment was superb! Well equipped, all you needed was there and we felt better than at home :) A friend of mine loved the couch and the blanket so much that she slept there all...
