Jose David was the perfect host! The apartment was filled with well thought out welcoming touches like cookies/treats, chilled water, ice in the freezer, guidebooks, maps, and a nice summary of local tourist sites (which included hours of operation, prices, free days, etc.). He also took the time to send an email with local "must eats" information. We did not use the kitchen but were impressed at how fully equipped it was including basic pantry staples. Towels, sheets, and bedding were in abundant supply as well as basic bathroom amenities. His parents met us on arrival and were equally kind and welcoming. We were really touched that his parents took time to walk us through local sites on a map. Additionally Jose David generously accommodated both our arrival and departure times (we arrived early and needed an additional few hours before departing for our scheduled train). All in all, highly recommended. It was very much like a home away from home.
