Maria’s apartment is lovely, very clean and well renovated with a view over a very pleasant garden square, and equipped with new and well functioning appliances. Maria is a caring host, who wants her guests to enjoy and be at ease in the apartment. There were a few unlucky technical hitches during my stay (which I very much doubt will occur again and could have happened in any newly renovated rental.) I mention this because I feel that Maria really went out of her way to apologise and make up for what happened, and to ensure that the rest of my stay was a very good one. I really appreciated her fair, honest and generous attitude and I would very happily stay in her apartment again. For those who have heavy suitcases, as Maria has noted the apartment is a walk up to the third floor.
