Maya was a gracious and most helpful host. She was very accomodating! We needed to check-in a little earlier than the listed time and she allowed us to do so. She even helped us bring up our luggage up the stairs to her apartment! Her listing is just as advertised. We had a little balcony area as well which was nice to eat breakfast there. The neighborhood was safe and very diverse. Lots of different international foods. The location was just right. A 5 minute walk to the subway into the city. Very do-able.
