We did not meet the actual host but met their friend / associate who showed us the flat. Communication was accurate and she came on time. There is a narrow flight of stairs to get to the apartment so if you have a heavy bag be prepared :) otherwise its cool. Love the place its small but very cozy and romantic ;) the only draw back is not enough natural light but if you are not staying there its fine. The city has ample light :) We loved staying here and would love to be back. Its located in more local part of town. Most of the good local restaurants are on the same street which was awsome and its a walking distance to most attractions so you dont need a car. just use your feet :) I highly recommend this place it was a very good place to stay thank you !!
