Apartment was clean and the big kitchen was nice to have to make some meals. We never met the owner as he was away, but check in was smooth and communication remained strong during our stay. We didn't like the neighborhood much. We were woken up at 6 am to alot of construction but couldn't shut the windows because it was so hot in the room. It was a pretty far walk to anything and the walk wasn't really scenic it was just construction and more apartments. The place was cheap so I knew we would be not central or anything. Parking was also annoying and very expensive so definitely don't bring a car if you can help it.
