Javier and Rick's place is in a lively neighborhood. You can find many good restaurants/bars around their place.
Javier and Rick weren't home but their friend's Agnes helped us, she was amazingly responsive :)
However, we didn't meet them but they've already sent us details about how to get to their place weeks before (extremely useful).
Agnes was flexible with our check-in time (friendly and helpful).
Unfortunately, the only downside was the fact that the place was not as clean as we expected. it definitely needs some scrubbing in the kitchen and toilet. there was no soap in the bathroom. the towel in the bathroom didn't look clean.
kitchen smelled funny! and the kitchen counter and stove were stinky. inside the cabinets were dirty and chaotic. The refrigerator contained loads of foods or left overs (probably from previous renters). plus all this shower drain was clogged. :/
Some already spoiled fruits and food were in the fridge.
beside the cleanness issue, they are very friendly and welcoming.
