It is a very nice apartment and at one point I am sure it was very nice and modern but that was awhile ago.
Lucia was a very nice host and always asked if I needed or anything. She was very attentive and did try to make me feel at home.
The location is great. It is across the street from the Hyatt high above a wonderful restaurant. Walking distance to lots of great spots. Very safe area. Make sure to check out Maison di Belen just around the corner and have some awesome eggs Benedict.
The small room which I rented is SUPER tiny; looks to be an old maid quarters. The bed lacks an actual mattress. It had a cushion (2 actually) from a couch that are super hard. I think it is overpriced for what you get; a tiny room with no internet and a super hard bed. Also there are no windows in the little room. Also my lock on my bedroom did not work. The front door could be used to come out of but apparently there was no keys for that but back door was fine.
I was able to see the larger room she rents and that was much nicer. It had a real bed, desk for work and a bathroom you have to go out the door to get to but much more of a standard room.
The apartment is spacious. The dog was an issue. It apparently goes to the bathroom wherever it pleases and was warned to keep my door closed or the dog would pee in there too. The pee smell was too much.
I think the larger room would be ok but the issue the is the dog.
Overall I would have given another star if the pee and was wasn’t an issue.
