Maria's place is in a great location. We were able to get around quite easily from there. The neighbourhood made for beautiful evening walks where we could admire the stunning Art Deco and modern architecture. There's an Eco Bici stop right outside which we recommend anyone using if you can get to the office to sign up.
The shared roof patio is truly a beautiful spot. Since the space itself has very little natural light in it (the windows are boarded up for an outdoor advertisement). It provides sunshine and a view. Great spot to chill and there's a hammock to relax on.
The building is occupied by wonderful and friendly people. Something to note as all our encounters were truly delightful.
The bed is quite large which is nice, however a bit firm. The lack of natural light in the bedroom may mean that you sleep in a little later than expected as well! It may also seem chilly.
The kitchen is lovely. Expect to purchase your drinking water. Not a bother! It's extremely affordable and means that you get to take in the local grocers.
The shower runs a little cool (due to a small boiler). This adds to the overall chill inside but popping up to the roof and getting outside for the day can remedy that!
Maria is super helpful and lives in the building. We found that anything we needed, she was happy to provide. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
