We enjoyed our stay at Álvaro’s place. The location was very convenient to most of the city's tourist sites as well as great restaurants and supermarkets. The location overlooks the river and has great views. If you are driving, expect to find street parking in the area, which didn't give us much trouble since it was off-season though this is a very busy residential neighborhood. The apartment was smaller in size but has all you really need when traveling. We would recommend and would stay again.
