Serviceable

Howard was great, the appartment was fine but is really quite small and the main thing is that the bedroom floor was really quite dusty/dirty. Ok for the price.

Great location and area

Second time we stayed. First was for a shorter period and was ideal. This time we stayed longer. Pros are location, comfortable bed, quietness(in general, though we had one noisy night from neighbours), nice host and a small garden to access. On this longer stay we found the 'kitchen area' more limiting, access to the sink in particular an annoyance as it is under an old bar surface. This point could easily be improved, as could more comfortable seating be provided in the living area. Security for the external door is fine, but for the inside apartment door was less than we would have liked. Still, having said all that, we'd likely return as in a great location.
