Paola was a great host who welcomed me upon arrival with a cup of tea. She also provided me with anything I needed (blow dryer/tooth paste/water). She gave perfect directions to get to her place and the room was spacious and looked exactly as the picture. It is a very central location, easy to get by anywhere and Paola was very helpful with directions as well as tips about the city and culture. I was there alone and we enjoyed a couple of meals with great insightful conversations!
