My family and I (husband and two sons 17 & 14) rented both apartment Sarah and Belle for a week in July. We have rented homes all over the world and nowhere else will you find an owner so devoted to the comfort and enjoyment of his guests! The apartments are well stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. There are all the basics you would expect and then there is more! I can't detail everything but here is what stood out for me. In the foyers were umbrellas and rain ponchos and a bag with towels for the baths. In the bathrooms you will find new toothbrushes and other toiletries in case you forgot something!

Other things we loved were the air conditioning, the wireless internet and the computers in case you did not have your laptop. Also the VOIP phone to call the US! There are notebooks in each apartment with all the information you could possibly need regarding all the electronics and how to use them. There are also notebooks on where to eat and what to do in Budapest and how to find the nearest grocery store. Seriously we have never stayed in a rental that provided so much information. As a matter of fact, when we left Budapest we traveled to Croatia where we rented a villa and there was NOTHING written down for us. We had to make several phone calls to the caretaker to figure the house out.

The apartments are very clean and very comfortable. The space was great for our family. There are plenty of board games and books and movies for your downtime. Our boys slept in Sarah and my husband and I slept in Belle. It was great to have both apartments to spread out.

The location of the apartments is perfect. We found the city very walkable just as John had promised. We used the subway and Trams only a few times but they were very easy to use. We used the driver that John had suggested to pick us up at the airport. He was there as we walked out of baggage claim. It was so nice to have someone waiting for us after nearly 20 hours of travel. We were met at the apartment by the caretaker, Ilona. She was very helpful in showing us all we needed to know in order to settle in. There were eggs, milk, and cheese in the fridges which was so nice. Plus there were some homemade treats and wine as well. We were exhausted when we arrived and were so grateful not to have to immediately grocery shop.

John was so helpful during our planning phase. He knows Budapest very well and we felt we were in good hands as we made our trip arrangements. Highly recommend!
