As advertised the apartment is a spacious studio. It was clean and it was a good starting point for our trips into the city. But the description and the pictures of the apartment are a bit flattering. The pictures make the apartment look very light (which it is not) and the decoration is good but not stylish. The bathroom is fine but very small.
The apartment is 2 minutes walking of a vibrant neighbourhood with a wide variety of restaurants, bars and cafes. The street of the apartment itself feels less save, especially at nights. The building is pretty rundown and the entrance is urine drenched with the occasional homeless person or junk loitering.
The communication with Maria went well, before and during our stay she was very helpful. She had good tips for dinner etc. The handover of the keys was also easily organized. It is clear that this apartment is commercial property and for me, it lacks the personal connection that Airbnb rentals normally have.
Although the apartment is fine and meets the broad expectations of the description on Airbnb, is centrally located and for a reasonable price, I will be a little bit reluctant to recommended this apartment to friends because of the state of the building and the street.
