I ended up not meeting Ranina, but she was the most helpful hostess I've had on Airbnb. She gave us a lot of useful information and suggestions about the city and the area around her apartment, answered all our questions, and went out of her way to accommodate us even though she was leaving the city for the weekend.

The apartment itself is very clean, bright, and comfortable. There is a large nice terrace and a second smaller balcony. It is within walking distance of the touristy areas and the metro.
