We stayed at Manuel’s place for one night during a road trip, and I should start by saying that the apartment was perfectly fine, especially for the price. Manuel was extremely communicative day-of and it was easy for us to check in via door code very late at night.
That being said, I wouldn’t stay here again. The apartment was oddly laid out (cramped shower and bathroom, long hallway) and didn’t have some of the thoughtful touches that I’ve been spoiled by in other Airbnbs. Outlets were not accessible in the bedroom and there was no soap. I was excited about the secret bookcase door, but while it was a very cute idea, it was mechanically disappointing. The walls and floor were very thin. (We did find street parking up the hill after midnight, though!)
