Enjoyed our stay we were a bit surprised that we were required to pay for the gas used to heat the apartment during our stay, cost was 90 euro. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Hi Mike, thank you for reviewing my apartment.
I'm sorry if you weren't satisfied about heating cost, but I think you have not paid attention to the adv description and to my messages.
I always communicate with guests clearly and openly.
It is clearly written in the ad that heating must be paid according to consumption and the cost has been made clear to you several times before your stay.
Moreover during your stay you have the chance of checking the reading of the gas meter daily in order to regulate your consumption.
I understand that everyone's heat needs may be different but I am surprised by your comment and your heating consumption as my apartment is really easy to heat up and you don’t need to keep heating on for a long time.
I am happy you have enjoyed your stay.
My pleasure to host you.
Roomy and well stocked apt with delightful private enclosed patio. Easy walking to everything. Helpful hosts. Should have booked for more than 5 days. Would definitely return!

We appreciate the lovely review about our holiday house and that our guests have found the time to review our property. It is our pleasure to know that our guests had a great stay and a good holiday as we do our best to make them comfortable.
Nous avons passé une superbe semaine chez Rosie. Retourner au frais et au calme après l effervescence des visites était toujours un plaisir. Nous étions 3 (2 adultes et notre fille) et avions toute la place nécessaire. La cour intérieure est un vrai plus et permet de profiter de l’exterleur.
