Staying at Mimi's place was absolutely lovely. The apartment is exactly how she described and although she wasn't around during our stay she was very welcoming when we met her, providing suggestions and answering all of our questions. The space was great and easy to access. The location is a bit out of the city but it was awesome to get out of the CBD and its right next to the beach. It's in a quiet cute neighborhood and Billy, the neighborhood cat, added to the charm. I would definitely recommend staying if you're looking for a less touristy option.
