The apartment was just like in the pictures. However, it was pretty bare and the water pressure was very weak. There were a lot of mosquitoes at night and the washing machine was broken. Also, there was a big construction going on nearby, so it was pretty noisy from early morning. I guess the location was not so great either because the public transportation system was quite inefficient, such as buses always coming late or were too full, and taking a long time to get anywhere. If you rent a car or a private taxi, I guess it would be easier.
