We had a good experience at Manuela's place.
Pros:
1. Manuela and her family have been very helpful
2. The kitchen is nice and big
3. The apartment is well furnished and close to everything
4. Manuela provided many blankets and towels
Cons:
The main cons is that about half of the apartment (bedroom and entrance) receives little to no natural light as there are no windows on that side, which can make it dark and cold. But this may be an advantage in the summer when it's hot outside.
Overall it was a good stay.
