Alex’s place was very centrally located in the Casco Viejo. We got in late on Saturday, so it was nice to take a quick stroll down the block to get a delicious meal when we arrived.
I was traveling with my elderly parents and the location of the apartment plus the fact that it was on the first floor meant they were able to get around easily.
The apartment is as described and, as so many have mentioned already, very clean.
Alex is an amazing host. He was very communicative before, during, and after our stay. We had a car which can be difficult to navigate because it’s primarily a pedestrian area. He helped us find free street parking over the weekend and even sent a reminder to pay for parking on Monday. Also, he checked in with me throughout our stay to make sure everything was going well. Any time I had a question he had a quick response. I really appreciated how attentive he was.
Regarding the noise, we found that, with the doors to the street closed and with ear plugs for light sleepers who always use them, we were able to sleep just fine. I live in a city so the noise level didn’t seem like anything more than what I am used to.
