I appear to have booked an Airbnb in an ex-"ghetto". Suspected it as soon as I saw the massive blocks of buildings.
Feels decently safe though, judging by the number of well-maintained cars parked outside the building. In any case, dinner and cocktails will be sufficiently fatiguing that I'll almost certainly get an Uber back tonight, so that's no issue.
Nice experience anyway. Have never been inside one of these buildings before, and would never have if it hadn't been for this hopefully-happy accident. One night won't kill me, I'm sure.
