Great communication from the host. Apartment was on the third floor with many stairs to climb. Beware- no air conditioning. Hallways are very narrow and bedrooms are small. The neighborhood was very rundown and it had a view of junk cars. The positive was that if you walk 15 minutes you will be in a nice part of town. Kitchen was a good size. Water in the shower was warm. We had trouble fitting our suitcases in the main door of the building. The price was very high for what was rented and we did not feel that it was a good enough value.
