The apartment and view were beautiful. It's about a 10 minute walk from the metro however the roads and sidewalks are uneven so be prepared if you are carrying luggage. Our host was very nice and attentive. He recommended some local areas for us to see. There was a plumbing issue in the area on our 2nd day and there was no running water so his father dropped off a case of water which was very kind of them. Overall it was a great trip.
