Gloria made us feel most welcome. She gave us a thorough orientation to the apartment and even had a bottle of wine and Spanish breadsticks on the table for us! The apartment matched the description on the website and met all our expectations - and even more. It is very handsomely decorated and provides all the basics for apartment living. It is also well located in a charming and safe neighborhood that is close to grocery stores, restaurants, and popular tourist sites. As a host, Gloria was also helpful when I developed an eye problem. She recommended a nearby ophthalmologist who was very kind and attended quickly to me. She also arranged our early morning cab ride to the airport. Gloria was a most generous and helpful hostess, especially as my friend and I do not speak Spanish. Without question, I would rent the place again and highly recommend it to friends.
