The place was as described and Alco was a friendly and responsive host. We adored Sugar. She is really friendly! The location is awesome - not touristy yet very convenient to the main tram line to get to the touristy spots. Probably the only thing that we were a bit surprised about was the noise at night - the road outside the ground level apartment window seemed heavily trafficked. But we are used to a VERY quiet neighborhood at home so this probably just stood out to us because it's so different. We slept fine once fallen asleep!
