We chose this apartment based on all of the positive reviews. Unfortunately this is not what we experienced. Maria Cristina is a lovely person, however we had no communication prior to arrival despite repeated attempts. We were moved apartments when we got there. When the wifi went down, a fuse blew and the elevator would not work we did not know how to get in contact with the owner of the apartment. We found some of the dishes had to be washed prior to use as they had black residue in them. The apartment we were moved to did not have laundry so kindly Maria Cristina did a load for us, we had booked this as our half way point because it had laundry. I don't know if she forgot she was hosting us, but it certainly felt that way.
