This home is managed by Carla
This home is managed directly by its owner who will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Carla used to live here full-time, but has since moved out, and now keeps it to rent out to people visiting the city. However, you can see that she still has a personal connection with the place, and that translates into very good service.
