My husband and I loved our one night in this great apartment! We spent 5 days in one of Marcia's apartments on the first floor and then needed a place on our last night before flying home.
Check-in was seamless with communication via the Airbnb app with Marcia (who we never met, but who was quick to reply). An associate of hers showed us to our room and gave us the keys.
The interior is beautifully decorated and arranged. The kitchen has everything you need and appliances work well. Bottled water is supplied so you don't have to drink from the tap. There is a TV, but it wasn't connected to cable, so it seemed like more of a screen so that if you had a cable to connect your laptop or something you could watch something on the monitor.
While Marcia warns in her folder in the apartment that hot water is limited, we were bummed that it didn't last long enough for even one shower--less than 5 minutes. Apparently you can wait about 20 minutes for the heater to be ready again, but we didn't feel like waiting for what might be another ~4 minutes of hot. Whatever, we will be back home tomorrow anyway.
The bed was comfortable, room darker and quieter than the one on the first floor.
Wifi worked okay--was strong enough to stream a movie to watch on YouTube. Occasionally it would go out, but considering I've heard signals are tough to get in the historic district due to super old buildings, I wasn't surprised. Not a big deal if you're on vacation--should be vacation away from the web too--but if you're traveling for business it might be an issue for you.
The building is safe and secure with both entrances staffed 24/7 with security personnel.
The location is lovely--narrow streets and centuries old buildings. Every type of food and shop is walking distance. We enjoyed going up on the roof and watching people walk around on the pedestrian-only street Madera, which runs perpendicular to Simon Bolivar.
Overall, we loved this apartment and would stay here again!
