I can't say enough about what a great host Barra was. We were there for a wedding and our plans were changed a few times before we got there, not only was he super accommodating while booking but he was also very accommodating when we were there with whatever we needed. The apartment was spotless and super comfortable for our stay and the building very very secure.
Also the location was perfect for everything we wanted/ needed to do. Most things were walk-able and if we couldn't walk we were able to get a taxi within blocks of the apartment.
