Amazing place and really good location. The apartment was really good. About the privacy, I would say it was terrible. You stay in the middle of someone's living room and its the guy's apartment. We did not feel really confortable. We also did nog get that warm welcome as everyone was talking about. Rene just talk a fell wprds to us, did not help us with tips of interesting places and really made a lot of noise every morning while we were sleeping.
