I met Jaime's father when I arrived at the apartment. He's the manager of the building. He asked us if we spoke spanish (we don't), said he doesn't speak english very well then proceeded to speak english perfectly.
Overall really nice area, there are good restaurants and cafes nearby. The apartment itself was very nice and clean. There were pots and pans but unfortunately no kitchen knife, so if you're cutting vegetables, you might want to bring a pocket knife. Other than that it was great.
