The apartment was very clean and communication with Shanel was great, always a quick answer and very friendly. We however booked for the nice terrace and that did disappoint a bit. The neighborhood is not very quite and also not very clean. There was a lot a lot of construction going on and dogs barking. You can also not sit on the terrace during the day, only in the morning and in the evening, because it gets too hot. Both of these 'issues' are of course not in the hands of the owner but it is something to keep in mind if you decide to book for the terrace as we did ;).
