Everything as expected in an area that was perfect for us. Great public transport very close. A very large apartment with loads of space so very suitable I would have thought for a large family. The hosts absolutely super - great communication and even took us to the airport when leaving.
Wonderful apartment with incredible views. Just a short walk to the docks and city centre, in a quite area with a good atmosphere! Howard and John are absolutely charming! Among our top experiences in Intervac.
A truly wonderful exchange! The apartment was not only beautifully decorated and spotless, but also offered a breathtaking view of the Liverpool docks. The location is quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk from the vibrant city center — the perfect combination. Howard and John were exceptionally kind, helpful, and welcoming throughout the whole process. Communication was fast and easy, and they even left us a surprises - two lovely orchids. Howard also shared great tips for exploring Liverpool — a city that truly impressed us with its charm, culture, and waterfront beauty. We are very grateful for this fantastic exchange. It’s a pity we didn’t get to meet Howard and John in person, as they seem like a genuinely wonderful couple. Thank you so much!
A superbly placed apartment very close to easy public transport. The apartment is comfortable and quiet. The hosts are brilliant and very communicative. If visiting Vienna I can fully recommend a stay here.
