Helena's place was right in the middle of old town and a short walk to all these excellent places to eat. Although it was very close to some of the busiest nightlife, it was tucked away in an alley way that was consisted mainly of residential buildings. So it was very quiet even though the areas nearby were bustling with people.
Helena was a great host. She met me near the apartment building and was very responsive. She gave me great recommendations for food and for a shoe store. She was very knowledgeable about the area.
