Host was not available when we arrived though she had asked a friend of her's to receive us at the water taxi station. There is a serious disconnect between Marina's sales pitch and the actual state of the apartment! The interior and the exterior of the apartment need urgent refurbishment especially the wash rooms (WC is heavily stained) and the shower facility. There is no water pressure so trying to have a shower is futile. Mattresses are very thin and not comfortable at all. Mosquito's and other insects seem to rule the apartment. There are even blood stains on the ceiling!! Would have moved out the first night if it was not for the advance payment we had made for the whole week. Did ask the host for a refund but got turned down. Overall a very bad experience and I would advise prospective renter's to stay away from this listing.

Location was not bad. Early mornings are very noisy with church bells, seagulls and banging doors!
