Ilia was very welcoming and kind. He provided us with a map and a couple of beers upon arrival! The apartment was very clean, and in a good location. My only criticism is the apartment was sparsely furnished. Some napkins or paper towels and enough toilet paper would have been nice. Also, I requested a hair dryer, but didn't get it until the night before we left, and even though I texted Ilia about it he didn't return my texts.
