Pros:
- Teresa was very nice and responsive, and tried to fix the issues with the apartment - provided us with a bottle of beer
- The location is very central, very cute neighbourhood with cafes downstairs, musicians play songs in the court yard, grocery store nearby
- Walking distance to great sites and neighbourhoods
- Great view from window
Cons:
- the stove would short circuit all of the power in the apartment if more than one of the burners were on. We tried using it with while having everything non essential unplugged but it still would not work. Made cooking difficult and very time consuming, not being able to use more one burner at a time. Teresa was very responsive and tried to fix it with a mechanic, and provided us with a hot plate, however, it was not fixed at the end. The hot plate would short circuit the electricity as well if used together with the stove.
- The internet is unstable and continuously drops, making video calls impossible. This was difficult for us as we were working from the apartment. We had to buy our own internet hot spot. Teresa tried to fix this too but it was not fixed.
- Cockroaches / insects came out at night that we had to kill in the bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom. Twice there was very large (4cm) cockroach or insect in the apartment.
- Kitchen sink water splashes all over when opened.
- Apartment gets very hot in the summer.
- Court yard gets noise at night so leaving windows open is difficult.
- Requested partial refund for the non working stove, internet and cockroaches / insects, but no response
