The apartment is located in a lovely neighbourhood which is not far from the center but not as noisy. There are 2 big supermarkets nearby and a bunch of small local shops that have most of the necessary goods.
The apartment itself is on the ground floor and can get a bit damp in March-April but Francisco was kind enough to bring a dehumidifier and a couple of heaters for the place. So it wasn't a problem.
Francisco is a great host, super responsive and is always there to help you with anything you need. He also lives nearby.
All in all, it was an excellent 1-month stay for our family of four.
