"The property was in truly remarkable condition. It had everything we needed, and it was clear that whoever set it up had thought of even the smallest details. At first, I was a little disappointed to learn that it was in the basement, since the listing I’d seen showed a terrace. But in the end, it didn’t matter. The basement had windows, and everything was so beautifully prepared that I forgot about it almost immediately"
