The apartment is indeed an oasis in the city. Landscaping and outdoor space is divine. We were unaware of a few things about the space: 1. It is on a very steep hill. If anyone has disabilities, trouble walking, etc., this could pose a problem for getting in and out of cars, parking, and carrying bags/luggage. 2. None of the windows in the bedroom, living room or kitchen give a vista of the surroundings. The outdoor space does that, but all of the interior spaces are relatively closed off from the outside. 3. The bedroom and living room space has lots of dark wood and subtle lighting that are nice ambience, but make it difficult to see. 4. The host's belongings are in the drawers, closets, cabinets, etc. These are marked private. The host provides immediate, gracious assistance and is on-site in the in-law suite below the apartment. The backyard gets great sun and is protected from the wind.
