What a disaster! Our stay was in late december and the temperature in the apartment could not be raised above 19 degrees C. Very uncomfortable. In the kitchen, major equipment did not function. The connecting doors from the living room to the hall were taken away, resulting in an even colder and non-cosy atmosphere. Further: the first photo on VRBO is misleading because not taken from the apartment but the view is on another canal. Contrary to their general terms & conditions, VRBO was not available for help. In short: after one cold night we left the apartment for a hotel. We filed a complaint and the owner flatly refused a refund. As did VRBO, who claimed we should have contacted them first. But, as said, they were unreachable. Kafka! All in all, due to all the defects of this apartment, our vacation was a lot more expensive than planned, due to the extra money spent on hotel and restaurants. In short: a very disappointing experience.
