Saido's place was great - a very efficient studio with a comfortable bed and sofa, very functional small kitchen and bath, and amazing storage for such a small place. It was easy to regulate the temperature by keeping the drapes closed in the afternoon (direct sun, and it was hot), and by opening the balcony door and windows when we were in the room. There was some traffic noise from the street the flat overlooks, but it didn't keep us awake, as long as the windows were kept partially open at the top. It was close to several U-bahn stops and walking distance to a number of busy commercial and restaurant areas. Saido offered a list of his favorite restaurants, of which we tried two and applaud his taste! He provided brochures, street and metro maps, and willingly offered advice and recommendations about anything. He was VERY responsive in communications, even though we never met him in person. (His friend greeted and oriented us.) Oh -- and there's a small elevator in the building, which was great for a 4th floor apartment. I only wish there'd been a coffee/bakery shop within a block! Highly recommended.
