Fabian and his wife are great hosts. The place is a guesthouse inside a condo which makes a safer and extremely quiet place. Very clean, comfortable and he breakfast was great. So do the two cats... I did not use public transport because Uber was very affordable but it is close to a main street with buses to the city center. Besides, though it is not in the city center, it is just 10 minutes by Uber. I strongly recommend.
