The apartment is as pictured in a safe neighborhood. All sites are between 1 to 3km from the apartment so while it is not far, it still requires walking (or transiting). Christiano was a great host who is responsive to communication. We had a very late check in (past midnight) and he was able to accommodate and help us arrange for private pick up from airport. Due to a heavy rainstorm, we had a bit of an issue at check in with some of the outlets and hot water tank not working but Christiano resolved this next morning. He also left some snacks in the kitchen for us to eat and the kitchen is equipped with essentials. There are a few great restaurants within a short walk from the apartment where locals go. Overall a good apartment to stay in
