I loved the location, the personality of our host Diego, and the decor in the living and dining room. The street is one way and fairly quiet. Also, the plants in both the apartment and in the building are nice. Once we arrived, Diego was very nice and even helped us get our luggage up to the second floor. Diego gave us some great food recommendations which were helpful since my boyfriend is a vegetarian. The coffee shop across the street is great and also had delicious pastries. We ended up going there most mornings because there was no coffee maker at Diego's. So if you're like me, and need coffee in the am, then you need to either buy some coffee across the street or I also got some frappe drinks at the grocery store. Please note, that this review is Oct. 2018. We know Diego is working on improving this apartment because an interior designer came during our stay to take measurements.
Why it's not 5 stars: Front door lock is very difficult to open and close, the bathroom toilet seat is smaller than the toilet bowl, wobbly, and doesn't stay up if you pee standing up that can become annoying, no bathroom trashcan or hand towel, rotten food in the refrigerator and no coffee maker. The drinking water ran out while we were there so we went to buy more at the store while waiting for Diego to get us some more. The living room light bulb burned out so we bought a new one. There were only 2 rolls of single ply toilet paper so we bought more a few days into our 6-night stay. No wine opener, Diego bought us one but then it broke after one use. :( The lighter for the stove rant out after one day and Diego brought us matches. So at the end of our stay, the fact that Diego was so responsive to our requests I was able to leave with a mostly positive feeling.
