I get the concerns of prior visitors, especially women, about the street/area feeling unsafe. I felt the same at times but nothing of concern happened to me aside the usual creepyness of some men... Location was otherwise perfect!
The apartment was great, clean and included everything necessary. Would recommend some sort of mosquito repellent after rainy days for the balcony. Got eaten alive, but that was my own fault.
Bed was super comfortable, shower had great pressure too!
Yea alright steps to the apartment were a challenge but there was no harm in a little exercise after all the gelato and pizza. Overall would totally recommend staying here!
