Edgar was quickly responsive and very helpful during our stay, although we did not actually meet him in person. Check in was smooth and simple. The apartment is tastefully decorated with modern furnishings and all the necessities for the perfect stay. The kitchen was easy to use, the bath was modern, and the bed was firm and comfortable. There was plenty of closet space and a washer/dryer for doing laundry. Apparently the climate in MC is so moderate, that most homes don't require central heat or airco. Edgar's apartment has no central heat or cooling, but a fan is available in the bedroom. We did not need either heating or airco during our visit. The neighborhood is clean and safe with a number of small restaurants and mini-markets. The only problem we encountered was with neighbors in nearby buildings, whose dogs barked persistently on several occasions, thankfully never at nighttime. Edgar, the host, has no control over that problem, which we have had to deal with in many other international travels. Bring ear plugs in case.
