Perfect for our needs
We travel abroad 1-3 times a year for our international nonprofit work and as people with physical limitations we have certain needs a hotel cannot provide. As English speakers, it's always a little challenging getting apartments/condos in cities (even though we download apps to help us communicate) - because unlike hotels it's more than likely the hosts and neighbors and local marts etc do not speak much, if any English.
But Carlo made it very easy, we used translators in person to communicate and he also drove us to the grocery store (1/4 mile away?), which had large plastic carrying bags to purchase so we had no issues walking home with our purchases. There were a couple of cafes/restaurants in walking distance, and while they also did not speak English well they were very welcoming (tip - always TRY to speak the native language and have an app up to show you are trying, it goes a LONG way as we are in their country and should at least make an effort to try to speak the native language). It's also about 1/2 mile walk to the metro, but we also did take Uber's and cabs (tip - not always easy to find so recommend pre-scheduling Uber pickups in advance, especially if you are trying to get somewhere on a schedule).
There was plenty of room in the living area - actually TWO places we could gather in the living space on top of the dining area.
Also, while there, if we had any questions at all Carlo was available on WhatsApp very quickly. Excellent host!
