Laurent was very friendly and communication was excellent leading up to check in. He was out of town at the time but had a friend meet us there promptly (was even flexible with our train arrival time) and his friend was very friendly and gave us all of the necessary information about the apartment. Trash and recycling were very easy to manage. The apartment is inside a very secure compound right near the heart of the city and is quiet and peaceful inside. The apartment was very, very clean, cozy and comfortable! We especially loved the bathroom. Really felt comfy since we were there over Christmas. To top it off, he even had water, coffee, and soda in the apartment that was complimentary. Very excellent place and host.
