Florencia is a gem. Her apartment is unique and stylish. Not the kind of stylish that slaps you in the face but the kind that evolves as you see a clever vase for flowers, interesting pictures on the walls and the personal touch of someone that truly cares about her guests experience.

The apartment location is terrific. A few doors down is a small market. Restaurants are within walking distance and transportation. When we arrived, Florencia was waiting for us with keys and an infectious smile. She easily explained how things worked and then left us to our travels. We cooked in a kitchen that was well stocked and very efficient. It as a terrific experience.

We left in the midst of a torrential and unusually strong tropical storm but Florencia arrived at 5:30am to see us off. She walked the rain soaked streets with us to find a taxi and made sure the driver knew where to go and how much time we had.
