Victor’s place is very special, in a supremely charming neighborhood. First of all, I want to put people’s fears about the “hill” to rest. The hill is really just a semi-steep driveway of about 100 yards, or the length of about ten cars. Unless you have mobility issues it should be fine if you are in relatively decent shape. It takes about five minutes maximum to walk up if you are mobile by foot; it would probably be very challenging if you had special needs in this area or walking issues.
The space is very spartan and mod; it’s clean, white and bright. The kitchen is very sweet, with basics for cooking, but if you’re looking to cook something more extravagant or need more than one frying pan, it is not equipped for this. All of the appliances were new, and stainless steel. The stove was challenging for me and my partner because we are not from Europe and didn’t recognize how it worked, but Victor was very kind in explaining how it worked via text. Victor was also very kind and supportive after a challenging travel day, making it easier to get grounded in the space.
The beds are both very comfortable; as others have mentioned, there are no doors on the rooms, so if you’re looking for more privacy and traveling with a larger group this might not be ideal. I recommend his place—it’s cozy and comfortable, and the neighborhood is adorable.
