Monica is the most gracious host you can imagine. She communicated with me before, during and even after my stay to ensure I had the best possible experience. The apartment is exactly as described and so comfortable. Monica even welcomed me with local treats. I stayed for a month and worked from the apartment and the wifi was strong. The neighborhood has everything you need including groceries, bars and restaurants, a laundromat and lots of nice shops right around the corner. The artist community downstairs does have concerts and you will definitely hear it, but I quite enjoyed it and they didn’t go too late at night. Monica was so wonderful to offer a cleaning during my long stay. I honestly felt spoiled! I highly recommend you stay at Monica’s place!
