Emmanuel is a very good host. From being there when we arrived, carrying our suitcase up the stairs, to suggesting places to go, anything we needed he would respond super fast. We really felt well-taken of by him. The location of the apartment was great. You can walk to the Metro, really just about anywhere in the old town. There was a bike shop nearby that rented us bikes for a super reasonable rate, like $7 for 24 hrs. There are great restaurants, shopping, coffee shops, cafe, you name it. It was super quiet in the apartment. The bed is very comfy, comforters and pillows were nice, shower worked well. Public transportation was great and very accessible from there. 10 min. walk to Metro and it takes you anywhere you want to go even to the beach and a short ride to the airport.
