The hosts were fantastic. Very sweet and helpful people. The backyard is an enchanted garden. They emailed me with very specific instructions on which buses to take and made sure to walk me through all electronics, passcodes, etc. The neighborhood is very close (walkable) to the city center where there is lots of shopping and eating choices. The apartment location itself is on a street where you might get hit on a lot if you're a young girl walking alone, so be cautious of that.
