Overall, I enjoyed Binni’s place. It is conveniently located near the metro stop and if you wouldn’t mind walking I would recommend do that and walk all the way to the center to check out all of the major historical sights (the walk is about 40 min). The area around seems safe and has some great restaurants, cafes and shops. The apartment is spacious and clean. It has a great kitchenette - small but it has everything one needs to make a meal. There are a few food stores just around the corner and there is an awesome outdoor market every Tues and Sat. The place is scarcely furnished but it has everything you need. The neighbors are a bit loud and the only window looks out to the busy street so be prepared to be awakened at night.
But overall, this is a great value for your money. The place can accommodate 3 people.
My only negative comment (with the best intention- only for the sake of improvement) is communication with the host.
I booked this apartment last minute because other plans fell through. The listing advertised check in time at noon however I wasn’t able to check in until 6 p.m. The host didn’t provide a phone number so we had to communicate strictly through AirbNb. My phone wasn’t working abroad so I had to rely on wifi signal to connect with Binni. We were told that a friend was going to let us in at 5 o’clock and at 5.45 after standing by the front door with all of our luggage we got nervous. I ran around the neighborhood trying to find wifi access to connect with Binni which needless to say was super stressful. I finally reached him to find out that the “friend” had some issues of which he didn’t bother to inform anyone and that he was coming eventually. I had to stay at the wifi spot to continue my communication with Binni (and his responses were very slow) while the friend came by and let my boyfriend into the apartment. Since we were not given the apartment number, floor or the name on the intercom - I couldn’t find my boyfriend so it added to the stress. As I mentioned before, my phone wasn’t working so no, I couldn’t call him.
My advice to you- the place has a very good value but make sure to nail all of the details with Binni before you stay and exchange phone numbers if possible.
