Alexandra’s place exceeded our expectation. It is located in a quiet neighbourhood away from the busy tourist areas but yet close enough to provide easy access to the main tourist centre by walking or metro. The apartment is very clean and spacious and very well appointed and has all the amenities. There are plenty of local eating places nearby. While staying at Alexandra’s place we felt like a local. It is an easy walk to the metro even with luggage! Alexandra is a great host. I can strongly recommend staying at Alexandra’s place.
