Alejandro's place was very nice. The apartment was very clean, well-furnished and well-equipped. Unlike so many airbnbs today, it felt like a home, not an investment property furnished by Ikea. It was clear that our hosts had previously lived in the apartment and had created it to their tastes. We especially appreciated the high-quality appliances, sharp knives, etc. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great. We also liked the little patio where we could dry clothes.
The neighbor itself is very quiet. On the plus side, that meant it was easy to sleep because of the lack of noise. On the minus side, the neighborhood felt sleepy with not much to do, without a large market, good restaurants, etc. Fortunately, the #3 bus came frequently and it didn't take long to get into the main part of the city with a nice ride along the river. The river itself was minutes from the house, and it was a nice place to take a walk.
Alejandro and Beni were excellent hosts. They gave us some restaurant suggestions, showed us how things worked, and called a taxi for us when we left. We appreciated their help very much.
