I didn't get a chance to meet Rafael, but his friend Bryan checked me in. He was very nice, helpful, and easy to get in touch with. The home was nicely renovated inside and very clean. The room was clean and comfortable and had Netflix hooked up to the flat screen. The one downside is that the home is located on a fairly busy street with a lot of foot traffic. I didn't feel extremely safe parking my car on the street overnight. Nothing happened and I had a great stay.
