The apartment looks to be newly renovated and is spotlessly clean. It is very close to the Atarazanas food market and there are shops and restaurants all around. Great location. It is on the first floor, so it is not really a loft, but it is comfortable and has everything you need for your stay, including nice sheets and a comforter for the bed. Alvaro is a very helpful host and communication is great. The old town is easily walkable, nothing is too far away, and the train from the airport takes you there in only 12 minutes. Absolutely recommended.
