The host responded swiftly and made arrangement to greet me around, the palce was nicely kept, comfortable and quiet. the neighborhood is very residential, with little traffic or noise. Shops, restaurants, etc. are a 8-10 min walk away, so relatively convenient. I'd recommend this place if you're looking to relax for a few days or visit with friends in the neighborhood, but not if you're looking to hit the tourist circuit--although there is a direct metro/subway line to downtown it does feel a little removed from the city center. Since I was looking to spend the weekend away from downtown, however, it was ideal and Id consider it again.
