We were staying at Alvaro's place four of us (myself my wife and two kids). Apartament was just enough equipped with two comfortable beds. Kitchen and bathroom was clean.
Apartment is really close to old center (you have to just pass the canal) and at the same time it was quiet at night. Walk to the beach takes about 25 min (for our family). There are some grocieries nearby about 5 mins walk.
Alvaro welcomed us at the arrival and explained everything. There were no problems requiring additional comunication with the host.
I fully recommend this place.
