Micheline and Daniel allowed us to have my very heavy suitcase delivered to their home and then they brought it to the apartment for me. That was extremely helpful and we appreciated it so much!
Their apartment is located in a very safe, affluent neighborhood. We felt safe walking everywhere, even at the local Metro station.
