Tomás was great and very helpful right from the start. He had many great suggestions around the area for me to check out, and even invited me to drink with his buddies (which I really appreciated).
I've been here for a month now and there is no location better. It's close to the parks where I go every morning to exercise and also very close to the subway, which can take you nearly everywhere else. If Tomas' apartment was available, I would've stayed here another 6 months.
**If you plan on having guests over to the apartment, make sure to check with him about the rules. We had a little confusion about that, but we managed to sort everything out :)
