Mariano's place was easy to walk to public transport and made it easy to get into the city centre via the metro.
The communication with Mariano's assistant was quick via text, and he provided ample details where possible (lack of English).
There were lovely little gifts of waffles left on the bed for us, and the cupboards had plenty of breakfast, tea and coffee supplies. The shower was nice and warm with lovely water pressure - fantastic in winter after a long day of being out in the cold!
We found it difficult to get up and down the stairs with heavy suitcases as the stairs are narrow and the apartment is 2 floors up though.
We were unable to use the washing facilities in the building, however the laundromat was close by and there were plenty of convenience/grocery stores within walking distance.
