I stayed in this lovely flat for a month and really enjoyed my stay. It is a bit noisy at night as there are a number of cafes and bars on the square, but the location is great so it didn't bother me. The owner is really helpful and very quick to respond to any issues. It would've been useful to have a washing machine but there is a laundrette around the corner. I would love to stay again.

Elegant spacious apartment
Seven of my architecture students stayed at John's handsome apartment for eleven days very happily. The apartment is large, the furnishings handsome. John was a terrific host. We hope to be able to stay with him again.

Un très beau séjour au Balcon des Cardeurs
Très bon accueil de Mme Ullman. Très bel appartement, idéalement situé. La place est particulièrement agréable. Avec quelques ustensiles de cuisine en plus ce serait parfait !
Nous reviendrons sans hésiter dans cet appartement si l'occasion se présente.
