Our stay at Elvy’s place was nice. The apartment is beautiful. I believe we’re one of the first guests to be hosted in the space, and stayed a little under a months time. With that being said, there were a few issues we worked out with Elvy.
At first, check-in was a bit difficult with the building staff, but Elvy was very accommodating and helped facilitate our entry. Once checked-in, the building staff was extremely attentive. They gave us bracelets to wear which you aren’t supposed to remove. If you are staying for longer than a week, this might start to wear, so it may need to be replaced. If you lose it, building staff requires you to purchase another. Security is pretty tight, so coming in and out of the building always requires that there is a staff worker there to let you onto the elevator.
The apartment itself is equipped with the basics, but if you like to cook often, the kitchen tools aren’t extensively flexible.
We stayed during the rainy season, and while it was cool outside, inside the apartment sometimes there isn’t much air circulation, so we requested a fan for the bedroom and Elvy quickly helped us get one, which was a big help.
There is a washer that helps a lot, but no dryer, just a drying rack.
The shower is great, although at times the water does leak out into the toilet area, we communicated this, but it didn’t seem to be much of a concern so it must be something that is normal because it drains out after a while.
As far as amenities go, you must make reservations with the building staff for any areas you want to use such as pool, jacuzzi or spa so keep this in mind and plan ahead. The pool is gorgeous, although you must wear a swim cap, so plan accordingly.
Both my friend and I live in a very loud city, so the noise was no issue, but if this is not something you are used to, the traffic outside is very loud at night.
Overall we had a wonderful stay, and the location is amazing. We would absolutely recommend staying here and look forward to staying again.
