Alex's place was very nice- clean, well-located, spacious and, located up 3 flights of stiars, had lots of natural light. The bedroom has windows opening on one side to the street and on the other to an interior court yard. A fridge and washing machine is a nice amenity! Alex was out of town, but always quick to respond to email before our arrival, and his cousin and her daughter- both very kind and welcoming- met us as planned. The apartment was close to popular neighboring areas, and replete with its own charms. Highly recommended- thanks Alex!
