I did not get to meet Romulo in person but he was in constant contact with us via text message and was very responsive. He checked in with us just to make sure we were doing well and everything was good with the apartment. He really was the best host! When we arrived, we met Rosanna (I hope I spelled her name correctly) and she let us in the apartment and showed us around. While we didn't speak Spanish very well and she didn't know much English, we managed just fine. She was very sweet :) The apartment was exactly like the pictures, and in fact, even better. Usually pictures tend to make a place look bigger than it really is but this was not the case here. Compared to all the other European apartments I've stayed in, this place was huge! And the bathroom...it was like a spa! The location was great and we walked everywhere, only having to take the metro/train for some day trips and to the airport. Also, I have to mention that the AC in this apartment was a true blessing as it was over 100 degrees a couple days we were there. It worked so well and we stayed nice and comfortable in the evenings! I would highly recommend Romulo's apartment - you won't be disappointed!
