We travelled with our four little daughters and the apartment was fine for us. We loved the garden and outside seating area. We were greeted with a filled fridge which is awesome after three days of travel. We are purposely traveling without a car and got around really well by bus- there are buses to the city center (total travel time 30 min) and there is a mall within walking distance that also has a countdown supermarket. The park has a playground that was good for the kids and the area itself is safe, nice and green and has a lot of Indian restaurants and shops. We did not meet Mark but communication was easy. We can recommend the place.
