I arrived excited with millions of questions. Adriano patiently answered them all giving even better details and more useful info. The bike was an invaluable friend. The apartment is surrounded by bike lanes, parks, friendly people , and has easy acess to the major sites by bus and bike and a few on foot. The apartment is very clean. The photos don't do it justice. The neighborhood is a quite multicultural community nestled in a group of high rises. The density of the buildings is a bit intimidating on approach but you will find that intimidation quickly falls away. Adriano and Nina thought out everything which helped me see much of the city in the few days I had. I can't end without mentioning that they are very accomodating and flexible. Very much appreciated.
