Fernando is an awesome host! All of our concerns and needs were addressed quickly and effeciently, and he went above and beyond with suggestions of nearby activities. Cabanyal is a happening place, somewhat touristy with things to do at all hours. The beach is a short walk away, and the Metro is literally across the street and can get you anywhere in town. Plenty of interesting and authentic pastry shops, markets and restaurants within walking distance. The apartment is very basic, was clean and had everything we needed. We were comfortable and felt safe. Highly recommend!
