The host had a welcome folder waiting for us by the front door with plenty of details about the apartment and the neighborhood. The apartment was exactly as pictured. Very clean, perfect size for the two of us and came with a kitchen stocked with appliances and plates/silverware. It felt like a very safe, peaceful neighborhood. There are nearby restaurants (about 10 minutes walk) in the neighborhood that we went to for breakfast and dinner. I would not recommend walking to downtown. Too far when you factor in the steep hills required to hike up along the walk. Overall, very convenient and enjoyable stay.
