Carmen was a great host. She's very friendly and her home was very clean and looks exactly like the pictures. The neighborhood is walkable, there is a grocery store around the corner and an even bigger grocery store a block and a half away. The walk to the beach was about 10 minutes. It's also close to the city center by bus. Around 10 minutes as well. The only downside is the outside noise from people on the street, but she has no control over that. A great stay as would book with her again.
