Coming to stay alone in a new city, I was pretty nervous about using an airbnb for the first time. However, I was immediately welcomed in and made to feel at home by Nataly and her family. It ended up being a wonderful place for me to become familiar with the city, and I loved being able to explore the neighborhood's restaurants, markets, and parks (it's also very easy to access the Metro/train as well as bike trails) which were all an easy walk away. But more than that, I feel extremely lucky that I was able to have been able to stay at such a warm, friendly place. As someone who is fairly young and shy, I came in half-expecting to stay in my room and keep to myself for 3 months, but by the end, I was deeply moved by how kindly I was treated, and considered this place "home" and not just a place to live. For anyone new to the city looking for a long-term stay, I would highly recommend coming here (simply because you'll be hard-pressed to find a place or people as welcoming as here).
