The neighbourhood was great. The apartment overlooks a square with lots of little bars and restaurants. The metro and local amenities are all within walking distance. Andre was quick to respond, which made things easy to organise.
Our experience with Andre was unpleasant when we checked in. His apartment was left in quite a state by the previous guests, and while that was an unfortunate experience for him, we had to endure rudeness and judgement from him as a result of it. He also told us that he would be coming by the flat daily to check on the flat, as he did not trust us to keep the flat in a good condition. Needless to say this was not the welcome we expected, and we were quite frustrated by his patronising behaviour.
Before he left us, he told us that other tenants in the apartment complex don't like tourists - which we felt - and we were very uncomfortable every time we left and came back to the apartment.
