The space is very comfortable for 2-3... but 4 is do-able. We have some guests with larger parties, but please contact us to book more than 4.

You have access to a full gym as well (this is a space shared with us when we are on premise). The gym has free weights, an elliptical, treadmill, bike trainer, heavy bag, and a speed bag. Use all at your own risk.

We do have a friendly dog (a Groenendael), but he is kept completely separate from your apartment. You are of course welcome to play with him, just let us know!
