The Good:
The host, Marcela, is so sweet! She was always friendly and welcoming. The other guests there, 2 others, for a total of 4 bedrooms in the place, were also kind. They were long-term guests, which I think speaks to Marcela's hosting.
The location was also great, close to so many things and convenient to metro. There's an elevator up to the apartment if you have a giant suitcase like me🤣. Marcela gave us great details on how the area worked and tourist spots to visit.
The kitchen was very clean and well-appointed. Marcela made sure we had plenty of space in the refrigerator and cabinets. I felt extra fancy making espresso every morning, but that maybe because I'm an American used to a drip coffee maker.
The room had good storage in it and you could close up the blinds so it was very dark, to sleep in. There were extra blankets if you needed them.
The Bad:
The beds are very uncomfortable and the furnishings cheap. Tobacco is smoked in the house. If you have body pain or need a smoke-free environment look elsewhere.
