Mauricio's apartment was one of the best parts of my stay even though I was out way more than I was in it! He is a LOVELY, kind, communicative host who has GREAT suggestions about where to go, what to do, etc.
I actually think the apartment is even prettier in person than in the pictures and just beyond stylish. My original Airbnb booking cancelled and now I'm so glad because I got to stay at Mauricio's! He was always available and showed me where everything was the first day. He is a gracious, lovely, interesting, funny man and my only regret was not getting to spend any time with him since he went on holiday while I was there!
The neighborhood is a gem--totally up and coming and the apartment is within five easy minutes of a major tube station and a great little M & S supermarket. It was also great to stay in a place where everything worked and there were no surprises--if he has a hair dryer, the hair dryer works. If he has a microwave, the microwave works, etc. There's lots of hot water, great water pressure in the shower, the apartment is wonderfully airy and sunny and there's a great little TV space where you can end your day watching British TV.
I really felt like I lucked out finding Mauricio's and I would book here again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Mauricio!!! So much!!!!
