The best thing about Mariana's place is its location. So many things were right at the doorstep, and the neighbourhood is beautiful. The apartment itself is clean, quaint and rustic, with all the basics seen to, along with a few extras (coffee maker, etc.). It's a very convenient apartment for a very reasonable price! Mariana responded within reasonable time to our questions and left all kinds of suggestions for local places to eat and drink. We never got to meet her personally, but she was kind enough to let us drop our bags off a little early, which was solved a lot of problems for us in our travels. All in all, a solid stay.
