Communicating with the host was smooth and seamless. Very friendly vibe from both Renata and Amy. Their place is accessed through a big sliding gate, just off an alleyway (it's well-lit and feels perfectly safe coming and going at night).
Once through the gate, it does feel like you've entered a little oasis. The backyard is lush, and secluded. I was warmly greeted upon my arrival, and told to help myself to any of the fruit growing in the garden. I had a couple of oranges during the course of my stay, and they were delicious!
The guesthouse was as advertised. Comfortable, and with the use of the backyard, it was really comfortable.
Great stay, great hosts.
