The host was very good about getting back to my e-mails and making sure to stay in touch for a smooth key exchange. He even left us a bottle of wine at check in. The location of the apt was VERY central, you can walk to everything or just hop on the metro down the street. The neighborhood is very lively, you enter into the building from a bar, but the apt itself was very quiet since it's one of a few in a office/commercial building. The A/C and TV worked well and the kitchen was pretty functional.

CONS:
-the second bedroom is maybe a twin size sofa bed
-the bathroom is just as tiny as it appears in the pictures (if you are very tall, very muscular, or overweight it WILL be a challenge)
-the WiFi is not the fastest
-the couch is NOT leather and peeling badly
-the shower-head was broken when I was there

I contacted the owner about the last 2 items, he states he was unaware and will look into them...

I think this place was more of a value for the location than anything else.
