Al was a great host. He was quick to respond, gave excellent tips for local restaurants and bars, and was very easy to communicate with. The flat was easy to find, very clean (and cleaned regularly), well stocked with all the right amenities (fridge, cooking hob, oven, laundry machine, AC, fan, heater, etc.).
Location wise, the flat was about 20-35 minute walk from all major sight seeing locations so very easy access, but also had excellent transportation links from the Airport (A2 airport bus), the Metro and buses to the sites also.
I would highly recommend!
