When we arrived at the address we were surprised Maria handed us the key and left without entering the property with us. We would have liked a proper tour through the house and get some instructions. Nonetheless, when we got inside we noticed immediately that the place had little to no windows, you had no view of the outside and it was very dark in the building. The patio where you could have breakfast was not well cleaned, a dirty ashtray was left behind and it was very dusty. The bedroom was located next to the kitchen with a small open area next to it with some trash bins. The same area was used as a central point for the pluming of all the apartments, and it was very loud whenever somebody would flush or use the shower. The second to last day of our stay was very unpleasant when we found a small dozen of very big cockroaches, that were still living but seemed to have been poisoned, in the open area next to the kitchen (next to the bedroom), aswell in the hallway of the building. With all of this put together, our stay at Maria Dulce’s apartment was not something we would do again. We also felt like the apartment was very much overpriced.
Having put out all the negative there are some positives. The street was very nice with a local restaurant in front of the house, which we very much recommend, a bakery across the street and a small supermarket a 1 minute walk away.
