The apartment is exactly as listed. It is clean, well lit during the day (with many different lights you could turn on at night), and is perfect for 2-3 people. The area around the apartment is beautiful with lots of plants lining the street. There are a handful of restaurants within a minutes walk, and you can get to the water on either side of the island within 3 minutes. We had the chance to meet Valentina's brother and parents, all of whom were incredibly nice and welcoming and answered all of our questions.
