Lina has been a great host. Thanks to her willingness and patience, I had the opportunity to spend one month at Manchester. Her small apartment is as shown in the photos. The view from the balcony on the canals is very pleasant. Close to the building, there are stores (e.g. Co-op) and tram stops (e.g. Exchange Quay) that allow to get the city center in fifteen minutes. The surrounding area is residential, well-kept and quiet. However, Lina made my stay perfect, satisfying also my requests. I asked her for some items and she bought them for me. If I return to Manchester, I will contact Lina again.
