I cannot express enough what a deal Renato's place is. You get his lovely, clean, open, airy, artsy, centrally located home and him as a host if you're lucky enough to catch him during your stay. He was so helpful and welcoming over the phone and in person.
The room itself is spacious and bright with a private half bath, fully stocked with toiletries. Storage under the bed and a huge flatscreen smart TV. There are tons of little thoughtful touches throughout that make you smile as you explore.
My favorite perk was probably the roof deck. Its like your own private (huge!) balcony with tables and chairs and more artful touches.
The shower pressure is great and the kitchen fully equipped, with a large dining table. If you are into plants then you'll fall in love with his space, especially the living room. It's like a jungle!
I would say the only con to the space was not having a lamp in the room, only the overhead fan light as an option. Nights were dark.
With that said, I'm already planning my next trip to stay with him. And you should too! :)
