This is a good pick overall: very good host, good apartment, and good location. Brian is a courteous, cooperative, efficient and very responsive host, and a well-travelled character. The apartment is well furnished and provisioned, and Brian has made an evident effort in ensuring a very bright style of furnishing (photos are very accurate in all details) that balances the relatively low level of lighting given that the reception and bedroom are slightly beneath street level. The apartment is delivered in a very clean and well-provisioned state. The aparment’s location is a bit removed from city centre, but this is still workable given the proximity to a metro station (Villa Maria; 5 minutes walk) and the trip’s distance to most central stations (some 10 to 15 minutes). Overall a good pick, and a good experience.
