I love the location of the apartment, all the big trees and the park nearby makes it feel tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city. But it's still only a few blocks from the beach.
The apartment is well equipped and had everything I needed, the only negative thing I can possibly say is that the spa bath is quite small so you can only sit upright in it. But everything else was beyond my expectations. Marcelo was a great host and went well out of his way to assist me when I had difficulties trying to book and extra night.
(I just wanted to add that I noticed another review had complained about the window not shutting properly and there being a few cockroaches and a gecko. The window has obviously been fixed as I had no problems closing it and didn't see any bugs at all.)
Thanks Marcelo!
