Marina's place was spacious, well maintained and clean. She has all the essentials and it was a nice touch to have some snacks and juice for when we arrived. The apartment is more spacious than in the pictures.
Marina was a helpful host and gave us some helpful tips about the area. Wish we could've tried more of her food recommendations but it was the end of our trip and spent most of our time relaxing inside with pizza, wine, and gelato. The neighborhood looks a little rough but we felt safe, however I would suggest being heavily aware of pickpockets: keep your phone and money on your person. As Marina suggested we did not wear our jewelry out and had no issues.
