Maria met us and gave us a brief tour of the apartment and recommendations for restaurants, which was very helpful. She even helped carry luggage up the extensive stairway. In my opinion, the location of the apartment is good, not great. Also, the stairs are in abundance in the apartment, so be aware if you have any mobility issues. This was stated in the description of the apartment, but one doesn't realize just how many steps it is to the front door until you encounter the staircase.
