When I saw the street and amount of graffiti on the walls I was wondering how this venue was going to turn out. My phone had died so I was thinking this could be a huge nightmare. However, manual met us and helped carry our luggage up 5 flights of stairs (only negative). Once we reached our top floor it was clean, quirky and the host had left cheese, bread and wine which was a lovely touch. He then sat down and pinpointed all the places to visit / eat - esp local places off the beaten track. All were cheap and great value. This place had all the amenities we needed - dishwasher, washing machine etc - only one bathroom for 3 bedrooms so with 8 of us that was another down side but we managed fine. Loved the flat. Would stay again. Great hosts so huge thank you for making it a fab trip
