Mauricio was one of the best hosts we’ve had; very communicative and flexible, great tips and recommendations for the area. Plus was very prompt to quickly get us what we needed when we noticed a few things were missing (hairdryer, trash can for 2nd bathroom, extra towels).
My favorite part about the apartment we’re the two big windows that let in a ton of natural light all day! The building (entrance, elevator, rooftop and the apartment) were all lovely and I only wish it had been warmer so we could’ve enjoyed the rooftop more.
The small kitchen was a bit tight if you want to regularly cook in: but with so many wonderful restaurants and cafes around it will be hard to resist going out all the time!
The bed and pillows were also very comfortable, some sort of foam thing that wasn’t too hard or too soft - and plenty of closet space, hangers and drawers to put your things away!
Only a few minor things to be aware of but nothing that should prevent anyone from staying here. The apartment door was a bit tricky to open, which might be hard for people without a lot of strength in their hands. You gotta turn the key and then it goes a bit more before you have to push the door hard to open. Nothing you can’t live with. Since the apartment faces the street and is on a block in between two street lights, at times there was a good deal of street noise especially from the buses that frequent that route. Earplugs will do the trick! And lastly, there’s no filtered water but there is a place nearby where you can buy a stand and get the big water jugs (20 liters kinda thing) so you don’t have to buy bottled water.
All in all, great place! Would definitely stay again.
