Mariano very graciously allowed me to check in early. The apartment was very clean and well appointed. It didn't matter to me but I do want to say that the apartment is quite a bit smaller than it appears in the photos. For example, the blue couch in the living room is about 4' long.
I liked that the building had security guards and that the door remains locked unless you have a code or they let you in. That said, I was really concerned that the sliding glass doors on the balcony did not lock properly. Mariano told me after I'd discovered this that she had known about it but before I checked in. The apartment is on the 9th fl so it's unlikely that someone would be able to gain access but it's certainly not impossible. I could see how someone from the 10th fl balcony next door could have jumped down. Again, unlikely, but as a small woman staying there myself, I was concerned enough that I slept with all the lights on and moved all the furniture against those doors for protection. Mariano came the next day to fix the locks on the sliding glass doors. I could see that the hardware had been changed, but the doors still failed to lock. If I had been staying for more than 2 nights, I would have found another place to stay.
Another thing that did not bother me but that I think it's important to let others know, is that the apartment is over a very busy highway. There isn't much going on at night on the roads but you're not going to have a peaceful sit on the balcony with a cup of coffee. That said, if you're there to site see, you won't be spending much time in the apartment anyway.
I want to emphasize that the apartment is very nice and very clean.
