We stayed for a weekend in Maria's apartment and found it to be well appointed and perfectly located. We didn't get to meet Maria but she gave us her cell number so we could contact her if we had any queries. We had advised Maria that we were arriving in the morning and she had agreed to allow us to leave our bags at the apartment but we were very pleasantly surprised when Maria advised us that we could check in as soon as we arrived. The key had been left for us at the cafe next door. As Maria has acknowledged in the description of her apartment the bathroom is indeed tiny but despite this challenge the apartment is good value.
