Javier's place is GREAT! Lovely space, well-appointed, and the completely private sun deck is fantastic (and that's from someone who had a 6-day stay of which 5 1/2 were rainy). The bed was large and very comfortable. The neighborhood is delightfully quiet at night, which makes sleeping a joy, but you can get to everything in the center in not more than a 15 minutes walk. Everything you need to feel at home is close by: supermarket, buses, cafe, bakery, etc. Javier was a spectacular host--he met me at the apartment, showed me around, answered questions, and even suffered my Spanish with grace.
