Jose was quick to respond to messages and helpful with directions from the airport. The apartment was very well-located - most places are walkable - and very clean, so good value.

There were a few niggles, such as no sheets being provided for my father on the first night (despite a supplement being taken for two-person occupancy) and the hot water in the shower running out very quickly in the morning, but both these were resolved. Also don't plan to do any elaborate self catering as the kitchen is somewhat erractically-equipped: although there are saucepans and a colander, there is no corkscrew*, no tin opener and not a single kitchen knife!

Street noise can be quite disturbing if you are a light sleeper, so it's worth taking earplugs.

*(Actually there is a corkscrew now as my father bought one and left it in the kitchen.)
