Rene was a great host; we didn't interact much but he was very accommodating, and the apartment was very well furnished. It looked exactly as described in the listing i.e. clean, well-kept, and overall a pleasant place to stay. It was a bit far from the more tourist-y parts of the city, which was expected so either be prepared to walk a lot (which is what my friend and I did) or use public transportation. But it was super close to the train station and at the other end of the street was a really nice park.
Overall, we had a great experience!
