My wife and I had a great stay at Maria's place. The place is very clean and well furnished. A person comes every day to clean the place, and sheets and towels are changed every other day or so. There are occasional dust laden winds (at least on one evening when we were there) and the cleaning was very helpful.
Maria's porter was a godsend! The walk from the main road is not long, but a lot of stairs to go up and down! So travel as light as possible if you can. Maria's porter Vassily was strong as a weightlifter and saved us so much struggle.
Maria came over within minutes of our arriving and gave us a lot of suggestions. She is very helpful and accessible.
Highly recommended!
