Roger's place was as described, it's on the second floor in a lively neighbourhood (although beware of thieves in this area, my phone got stolen at the closest metro station)
Roger's staff kept in touch before we arrived and were super helpful throughout our stay. The beach is a 15 min walk from his place, and there is a street full of restaurants close by too.
The house comes with a small balcony which you can enjoy in the evenings and mornings when the temperatures aren't too high.
