Ricardo and his place were both absolutely fantastic. As you can see from the photos the view from the apartment is absolutely fantastic and you need to see it in person as the photos can never do it justice!
Ricardo is an brilliant host!! In the months before our stay I was sending lots of messages to Ricardo and asking lots of questions, Ricardo answered every single one and was a pleasure to deal with. As me and my friends were there for the World Cup I asked if Ricardo could get a bigger TV as we might want to watch a couple of matches in the apartment (a crazy request I know!) however when we got there Ricardo had bought a huge TV which was fantastic (I don't think it will be there subsequently as Ricardo is taking it for himself and you don't need a TV when visiting such a great city) however this just goes to show the lengths to which Ricardo will go to, to make sure his guest have a great time.
The walk to and from the apartment is a nice and safe short walk and there are spectacular views along the way and a couple of places to stop off for food and drink. In my opinion it is a perfect location!
