The apartment was very clean and a comfortable size for us two. The large terrace was a big plus. All in all, we had a very nice stay in this place and I would highly recommend it.
We didn't explore the neighborhood that much, but the apartment was located on a quiet street, with some nice restaurants nearby. The metro station was a short walk away.
Silva was a great host. Prior to our arrival, she gave us information about public transportation from the airport, and was quick to answer e-mails and made us feel welcome. She was also very flexible with our wishes. She was a great host for us using AirBnb for the first time.
