The location could not have been any better, literally steps away from train station. Maria met us upon checkin and was very courteous and forthcoming with lots of recommendations. The space was clean and comfortable. We didn’t do any cooking but there appeared to be amenities to do light cooking.
Although the location was great, keep in mind it is in a main alleyway. If the windows are open it can be noisy, especially at night.
One reason we choose this space because it was listed as having A/C. It had a portable A/C unit but due to a part missing, it was unusable. We asked during checkin how to operate the A/C and was told it would be very cool in the evening, to just open the windows and it would be very comfortable. When we got in that evening (midnight) it was hot inside the unit. Then we discovered the hose for the hot air discharge was missing (which made the A/C unit unusable). We opened the windows but he noise from the alleyway was unbearable. We also had a mosquito issue with the windows open at night. So we had a very uncomfortable evening with very little sleep.
To be fair to Maria I never brought this issue to her attention because it was so late and we were only there for one evening. I do believe if I had brought it to her attention she would have made it right.
