Matilde was a wonderful host, and the apartment is absolutely beautiful. It's the perfect location, within walking distance to anywhere you'd want to go, including cozy bars, historical sights, the water, and delicious restaurants. The apartment is very spacious and comfortable (especially coming from San Francisco!) and so peaceful. Matilde was there with a warm welcome when I arrived, helping me with my bag and sharing tips about local places I might be interested in checking out, and she was immediately responsive throughout our entire stay if we had any questions for her. We loved this apartment and would come back again anytime- we never wanted to leave!
