They were very welcoming and awesome hosts. The room was as advertised, very roomy and comfortable. The entire apartment is great, and they made us feel right at home, including greeting us with juice and cookies and making coffee in the morning/ They had a few extras that made the stay much better. They provided an audio tour of the UN and old city, maps, and will explain a lot about the city to you so there is no need for a city tour. Very good central location. Did not have any problems with proximity to red light district (even during world cup). Would highly recommend staying here.
