Disappointingly Misleading

First, let me say that Maria is a gracious host and very prompt in communicating with us for the check-in. She greeted us with a bouquet of flowers (a very nice gesture) and the apartment is indeed beautiful. The location is great and the town is wonderful.

However, the description of the apartment is misleading. The apartment is small and NOT a true 3 bedroom for 6 people. The pictures make it look very spacious but it is simply a small one bedroom with an on-suite bathroom. You enter the apartment into a living room with two twin convertible sofa beds (room1). A door leads you into the small bedroom (room2), and another door opens into the bathroom. The bedroom has a door on one side that opens into a courtyard and two tiny windows on the other side that open into the corridor between the apartment and the adjacent home. The neighbors are extremely loud into the night and you definitely feel like they are in the same room with you. The bathroom is spacious for a bathroom and beautiful. It has sliding doors that can separate the shower and toilet area from the rest of the space. According to Maria, if space is needed for more guests, she uses the sliding doors to close off the toilet and shower area and the remaining space in the bathroom is used as a "bedroom." I don't know about you but I would never ever want to sleep in the "bathroom/bedroom" area.

It would have been more honest to say that this is an apartment for 4 people. I think with a realistic expectation and some good ear plugs, one can really enjoy the apartment.
