Marlene was a wonderful host, very patient and understanding even though we arrived quite late due to our plane being delayed. She gave us some useful information regarding the neighbourhood, stores, bus stops, restaurants nearby, and we could always turn to her with questions. Best host I have ever had.
The apartment is more than enough for a week-long stay, the air conditioning is a lifesaver, but a shower, as a few other people mentioned, is a bit tricky. For me there weren't any problems with it, I just had to wait like a minute before the water warmed up properly. It's a lovely place, clean and comfortable.
Thank you Marlene!
