We enjoyed our stay with Barbara and her husband, but the apartment was a little different than pictured. It was not as clean as the pictures- the bed comforter was filthy and the sheets were rough, and the towels were old and terrible to use. Barbara’s husband was great, he gave us perfect directions and helped us a lot with navigating the city and how to be safe. He even carried my bag for me when he met us at check in. They are great hosts, they left us little gifts and maps, it was just too bad the apartment was as clean as we had hoped it would be. This apartment is pretty far out of the city, 20-40min bus ride, so we ended up paying for taxi’s which kind of sucked. It isn’t really near any restaurants either so we had to eat before we headed back each night. Overall, not terrible.
