Vanessa's apartment was very nice as pictured, and very close to the metro and about a 10-15 minute ride to all the major attractions. Vanessa was very helpful when we needed assistance and even called a cab for us. The only thing is we were there for 6 nights and they only had 2 half (looked used since we ran out in two days) rolls of toilet paper and no paper towels, and we were told to buy our own even if we weren't given full rolls.
