Charles really was a very flexible and accommodating host, which every traveller values.
The apartment is in a very quiet area. We had no street noise at all. Very close to the bus stop, and it’s about a 20-25min transit to places of interest (about a 45-60min walk). This location itself doesn’t have many points of interest, but it is a safe neighbourhood.
The apartment is up two very steep and narrow sets of stairs. It is clean, and is set up with everything you might need (minus a microwave).
The only reason I have marked this down is because the bed was very uncomfortable, as well as the pillows. We often stay in budget accom, and this disappointed my expectations because a good sleep is important. The bed seems to be sunken. Fine for one person, but for two people you spend the night rolling into/onto one another. I feel like it needs to be replaced. Secondly, the pillows are completely limp and flat which left us both with a stiff and sore neck in the morning.
Overall it was a fine stay, just a good nights rest is imperative when travelling
