Gabriel is a good host. Very helpful and informative. He made sure to give us a very good overview of the city and where to go. His place is very central. I would note however if you're very sensitive to cold, his apartment can get quite nippy in the winter. However, I would mention that he can provide a heater that will help. Additionally, his apartment is in a very lively part of town so if you are sensitive to sounds, may get a little bit loud on the weekends.
