The apartment is beautiful, extremely clean and has everything you could need. It is located very close to the trolley and grocery and liquor stores, and has a gorgeous backyard with orange and lemon trees to chill out in. John was also very responsive and accommodating on my move-in day. The neighbourhood is a little poor and a faint of heart traveller may not feel comfortable here but I stayed by myself for the first day/night and felt perfectly fine. John's home is the nicest on the block and I would certainly stay here again. Also there is a taco truck just 2-3 blocks from the house that is super delicious! You'll know it by the huge line up of locals - a sure sign of a great spot!
