The apartment was just as described. It was close to lots of local restaurants, stores and there was a major mall close by. It is a short walk to the closest subway station. The apartment was clean, had a nice private patio, and it was a great value for the amount charged. There were 2 flights of stairs to climb, so keep that in mind if you can't handle stairs well. Adriana made a point to greet me when I arrived, and to also say goodbye to me at the door. She was very friendly and a great host. This is a perfect type of place to stay if you want to be away from the touristy type places, and you will have a clean place with character.
