Valentina was a lovely host and the room was in a very convenient location just a few minutes walk from the railway station, metro station and bus station, and about 20 mins from the city centre. There are also a few decent restaurants in the neighbourhood.
The general area is a bit run down, so although it seems perfectly safe some people may prefer to ensure they check in during daylight hours so it is easier to find the apartment quickly when they first arrive.
Overall it is very good value, and especially good if you are arriving by train.
