Our experience at Patricia's was great. It was in a very convenient area (metro, groceries, cabs) and we felt very safe there. We were in easy walking distance of many restaurants as well as the beach. What the pictures don't show is a giant courtyard-like entryway and a gate that is manned 24 hours a day. When our bags didn't arrive at the airport, the guards at the front desk were there to receive the delivery, which was super helpful. Patricia also held onto our bags on the day we checked out as we were flying out late that day.

The funicular and the building itself were just as beautiful and unique as advertised. It has retained a lot of its character. I definitely recommend Patricia's place!
