Alejandro and his young son are adorable. Alejandro is just getting this unit going, and it has BY FAR the best bed I have slept in, maybe EVER ,including my own. The air conditioner works well. The kitchen is small, but functional. The unit is spacious. The shower is up high enough for a tall man. all of the tile work is great. The fridge is spacious. Building security is good, and the doors and elevators all work.
The location is second to none. There is a grocery one block away. 1/2 block in the direction of traffic on San Juan puts you in the Pinchincha subway. 2 blocks against traffic on San Juan puts you on the 'H' line, that will take you up toward Ricoleta. Uber is easy to get any time of the day or night, on any day of the week. The pastry shop next door is great. There are two fresh fruit and vegetable markets within a block, and a butcher across the street.
Alejandro provides a SUBE card, so you can charge it up and use the subway and bus system to go anywhere. The unit is on the 5th floor, so theres little road noise, even though you're only 40 feet down Pinchincha from San Juan Ave. The balcony is facing SouthWest, so you get afternoon sun, but even so, it doesn't heat the unit up. The apartments across Pinchincha are set back and shorter, and facing San Juan Ave, so no one is ever looking in your glass wall, though there are drapes you can draw down if you choose - I left the drapes open the entire time I was there, and it was so nice!
The elevators work - never had a problem. The mag lock downstairs works, and the apartment key works. The wifi works.
And Alejandro is easy to work with. This unit is an INCREDIBLE VALUE and you will enjoy it here.
