Maria's apartment is very spacious and comfortable, extremely well- equipped, and nicely located. If you are a walker, you can easily walk all over the centre of the city...it takes about 20 minutes to get to the cathedral. Otherwise, bus, metro, and uber are cheap and convenient. The WiFi in the apartment works really well, and we never had a problem with it. The building is generally quiet, with nice working people. We love that there was a dishwasher as we were two couples, family, so wanted just to relax and enjoy our vacation, not do dishes. We didn't meet Maria; her son met us at the apartment and gave us a lot of information about the city, where to eat, what to see, etc. He is a charming and knowledgable man, very proud of his beautiful city. There is virtually no traffic noise at night, and the only sound (mostly during the day) was a bit of dog barking from the vet clinic next door. The beds are very comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
