Host was attentive and offer to help us before and after arrival. He made us feel very welcome. Neighborhood was good. You will be living among locals who are very kind and helpful even though we do not know the language. I will definitely come back in the future. Only word of caution is that one needs to study the landlord's laminated metro and bus maps as well as how the communities are set up before starting to walk around. We did not do that and lost for hours on the first day. Once we studied the material, we have no problem. My advice is to take advantage of all material printed on both sides before you leave the apartment.
