Raquel is a wonderful host. Very quick to respond, made check-in very easy with timely and good instructions. The apartment (especially the bedroom) is small but very quaint. Except for some work being done on the exterior, we found it to be quiet with the windows closed, even though the street below can be lively at night. It is in a perfect location near a nice square with cafes, 3 grocery stores, public transportation and close proximity to the riverfront. We truly loved the location. There is a tiny elevator which was a blessing since it's 40 small steps up to the apartment. The kitchen was equipped with basic cooking equipment for simple meals for longer stay guests. Nice large refrigerator. We did find the beds comfortable, although the cover was very heavy for warm weather. A suggestion was made to Raquel to consider adding some lighter weight options for future guests. The air conditioning worked great as well. We had a great stay in this sweet apartment.
