Michael was an excellent host! He was available to meet us when we first arrived, which was very important, since the apartment is located on a steep stairway between two streets.
Michael also gave us an extensive personal tour of the Santa Teresa area, which made it really come alive for us. He has lived there for many years and knows a great deal about the history of the area.
He also let us use his washing machine, which was helpful for a couple that has been travelling for almost three months.
