Spacious and clean apartment with a nice terrace overlooking the shipyard/marina and looking out to the swivel bridge on the river. Prompt and easy communication with the host, who was very accommodating. Convenient both to town and to the train station. Nice coffee shop in the station, and good Mexican restaurant close by.
