It was very nice to meet Javier who was an extremely helpful host; checking in to see what we needed and ordering a taxi to the airport for us. The neighborhood is lovely and the apartment has been very nicely renovated in an historic building. The living room is spacious with 2 scenic balconies and there is plenty of room on the couches to spread out. The king size bed is very comfortable and the sheets are soft. There is no elevator but Javier brought our luggage up the one flight we when arrived and down one flight when we departed. As other reviews have mentioned the floors are beautiful but very creaky and getting a handle on turning the lights on and off with the remote controls takes some getting used to. Another interesting design is that the shower is part of the large bedroom and is separate from the toilet and sink. We really enjoyed our stay at Javier’s apartment and would definitely return!
