This penthouse is every bit as lovely as the pictures suggest, and yes- that is really the obelisk directly out your bedroom window! Juan José is an attentive host, available but not intrusive. There are many thoughtful details you will appreciate such as power adapters, a washing machine and plenty of towels/blankets. As a solo female traveller I can tell you I felt safe in this building, knowing the door was attended 24/7. Really great value, too!
