We had a great stay here. Rachid was super responsive to all communications and while he wasn't available to meet us at the apartment (I wanted to thank him personally) he made sure someone was there when we arrived.
The apartment is exactly how it appears in the pictures. It was simple, clean and neat and has everything you'll need. Rachid had a bottle of water in the fridge waiting for us which was appreciated after our travels and the place has a GREAT shower which was really nice after a long day of sighseeing.
We LOVED the location.... it's a few minutes walk to the major attractions, just a block or so to the Metro but the authenticity of the area couldn't be beat. Calle Blai was amazing! Local people, stores, restaurants, bars.. all just outside the front door of the apartment. Every night we'd return home and stop for a drink or a bite or some gelato just steps from the front door. We'd sit outside and enjoy the nightlife for a while before turning in. The bedroom is in the back of the apartment so noise wasn't an issue and in the morning it was quiet and peaceful. One item to note, the apartment is on the third floor but it's the top floor of the building so more than 3 flights of stairs. Not an issue but worth mentioning if stairs are an issue for you.
Overall we had a great stay here. Rachid was a wonderful host, we had a late flight so he allowed us a later checkout at noon and would have allowed us to leave at 2:00 had he not had new guests scheduled. That was appreciated as well. He also suggested Google Lockers to store our luggage had we needed it, which was a great tip. We really enjoyed the location and atmosphere of Calle Blai and the variety of bars and restaurants so close to home including the tapas and kebab places - I grabbed a late snack at Kilim on the corner twice - great food.
