Summary: Wonderful location, an easy walk through beautiful neighborhoods to restaurants, coffee shops and markets. Lolo’s place is clean, quiet, comfortable and comes with many personal touches, from the succulent garden in the private sitting area to the artwork inside. The kitchen is especially well equipped for a rental. And Lolo was a lovely host. Highly recommended.
