Carlos was an excellent host. He was very knowledgeable about popular attractions and how to avoid long lines. He was also easy to get a hold of. The apartment is in a great neighborhood. Close to many sjopes, restaurants etc, but not too busy. The a/c was a huge plus. There's a park across the street and people hang out there late into the night... 2-3am. They are not rowdy but it is noisy if you're trying to sleep. With the window closed you hear nothing. I could hear the television from the apartment next door. This was only for 1 night, but I would be wary if you're a light sleeper. Otherwise everything was excellent.
