Elia's place was perfect for our 5 day visit. It felt like home with all the amenities to cook and make ourselves comfortable. The apartment is very large and beautifully lit throughout the day as well as centrally located so we could walk or take the metro to any restaurants or sights we wanted to see. We didn't get a chance to meet Elia but she was very responsive via messages. Also, the internet is high speed and there is a nice desk to work at while basking in the mid day sun. I highly recommend staying and hope to return!
