An Air Force brat, I have been traveling nearly all my life; hosted by every conceivable class of individual, from GI's to civilians, however, never have I encountered a couple so well suited for the Airbnb lifestyle. Not only do they represent the ideals I most cherish in this community, but they aspire, consistently and without fail, to make any effort to improve the quality of the guest experience, even when that surely puts them at a slight discomfort. For example, as an American forced to cross continents at a moments notice due to a child's medical emergency, I was unaware of the local currency instability, as well as how to go about exchanging my dollars. Needlesstosay, Maria's unsolicited assistance in this regard went beyond the pale of common courtesy, and places her in a collection of hosts Airbnb can pride itself upon.
In regards to the accommodation itself, I hesitate to repeat the praise already expressed, but to do otherwise would be a disservice to Maria and Bernardo. Spotless, well-organized, and readily accessible from the street, the apartment not only exceeded my expectations, but its convenient location provided additional amenities not even advertised! Surrounded by beautiful parks and classy cafes, the sunshine sets the scene for an afternoon stroll or local sightseeing.
