Jimmy's place looks exactly as depicted in the photographs. It is not posh accommodations, but clean, comfortable and very good value for the price. The kitchen hasn't been updated in years, but is still very functional and has all the basic utensils and appliances you'll need. The apartment is on the 2nd floor (or by European standards, first floor) and is in a fantastic location, central to almost all attractions, plus great restaurants, coffee shops and tapas bars nearby. The apartment has very nice natural light (though when we were there, the outside of the building was being renovated/restored, so there was see-through plastic sheeting draped over the windows). Next door, there's a reasonably priced bike rental and lovely parks nearby where you can cycle without having to worry about the traffic. We didn't get to meet Jimmy during our stay, but his co-host, Carolina, was very helpful and even traveled considerable distance at 12:30AM to let us in our apartment when we accidentally locked ourselves out. My adult son (my travel companion) and I were lucky in that we didn't have to share the apartment (no one was renting the second room at the time) so I can't speak to what it would be like to have to share the one bathroom with others. But for us the stay there was a very pleasant experience.
