Some thoughts for safety-conscious female travelers:
This felt safe for a few reasons: The studio is in a modern gated complex; you walk up wide walkways and a large courtyard to get to the apartment. The complex is on a main road with a bus stop right across the street . (IE, there are no dark empty streets or alleys or any other nooks and crannies that can be an unwelcome surprise when you book a place sight unseen off the internet.)
I should add: despite the apartment being on a main street, it’s far enough from the street that you hear no noise.
You’re on a second floor. Inside the door are two extra interior locks (bolt and chain), so it feels secure inside too. I should add, the ground floor apartment is also an AirBnB, and you share a little entranceway with whoever is staying there.
The apartment has quirks, but don’t we all. The quiet setting, tons of windows, and spaciousness more than made up for any of those for me. Have a good stay!
