Pilar was a great host: very helpful with giving advice about the city, willing to simply sit down and chat, and she even tidied up my room a few times : ) my only con is the area itself and the room layout. The area is safe but I didn't feel like there were that many food options besides buying from the supermarket nearby. It's also a bit out of the way from most places. As for the room layout, if you come in the summer, expect it to be a bit hot and stuffy. It gets the sun all day. Overall, I would recommend Pilar as a host.
