Nice, but underdelivered.

Overall, nice quiet apartment on the river and handy for us to use as a base for gravel biking. Unfortunately, be aware all transactions and communications are made outside the Vrbo app, something I was NOT made aware of, There is also a requirement for a £200 refundable deposit, which seems excessive for an apartment that was full of food crumbs from the previous guests, and had multiple failing fixtures. Nothing that really affected us, but when I’m paying that much in a damage deposit, I expect real quality from The host! Communication was pretty poor with no information leading up to the holiday about when payments would be taken or when to check in - you only get check information AT the time of check in on your app. I would avoid the host.
