We really enjoyed our stay a Manuel's place. It is better than described and shown in the pictures. It is well laid out, very spacious and bright. We loved the rooftop patio; it is very private, spacious, and pleasant to enjoy in the mornings and evenings on hot days. There is only one AC unit in the living room which at first I thought may not cool things down in the rest of the apt.; but it works wonderfully - so no worries about the apt being too hot! We did not meet Manuel Jr. personally, as it was his dad - Manuel Sr. that greeted us. But Manuel was very prompt with his communication. He was super kind and accommodating to let us enter the apt. earlier than the check-in time. We super appreciated that! And Manuel Sr. is so friendly, kind, and attentive; we enjoyed meeting him. AND - we had mentioned that we were in Spain for our anniversary when we booked - and to our surprise, they had a bottle of wine and local honey for us as a gift. We were very touched by their kindness and thoughtfulness. The apt is located in a great area - you can walk to the supermarket, bus, and metro easily (10mins). It is in a nice, quiet neighborhood too. I can definitely recommend staying here!
