Un appartement hyper bien entretenu et rénové. Propreté irréprochable. Tout le nécessaire pour cuisiner est présent: plaques induction, micro-ondes, Nespresso, bouilloire, réfrigérateur, vaisselle, couvert et ustensiles. Le wifi est très performant, et les prises électriques ne manquent pas. La literie est confortable et les espaces de rangement sont suffisants dans la chambre et dans la salle de bain. Bref: j'ai trouvé mon point de chute dans le secteur!
Merci Isabelle pour votre travail et pour votre gentillesse!!!
A bientôt.
