Our host happened to be home when we arrived and greeted us as soon as we got there. He is very pleasant and inviting. Beyond that, my friend and I barely spent any time there. We were too busy in the city! The place had everything that we could need when we were there. It has a lovely little balcony. We enjoyed a bottle of wine and the city lights at the end of our day. The travel to the city isn't bad at all. I love the subway, so it was an enjoyable trip. I have no complaints! I was quite content!
