We really enjoyed the four nights we spent at Cecilia's apartment. It is located about four blocks from the subway and a block away from a smaller but perfectly decent supermarket. A little further away (about a 10 minute) walk is an enormous hyper-market called Jumbo. The apartment is well-supplied, compact and has an amazing balcony with a super view. There are also a few very nice restaurants close by. We spent many evenings there sipping wine during sunset. Cecilia is very easy to contact by email and she replied very quickly with helpful suggestions. She supplies guests with a very useful printed guide book with local shopping and other suggestions.
