The location is excellent, views of Amsterdam's treetop canopy from the apartment lends to a sense of serenity, and the apartment is well kept and clean. However, there are two material issues with the apartment: 1/ a terrible and almost overwhelming smell emits from the shower drains. There are drain covers that you must be vigilant in ensuring cover the drains at all times, if left unchecked the entire apartment smells terribly. If covered, the smell is manageable, but note that the covers often slip when the shower area is wet (i.e. after you shower), leaving a bathroom unusable until aired out (maybe 8 hours). We would frequently rotate between bathrooms, given the smell. More importantly, 2/ the water filter mentioned on the profile (or was noted when we rented, but remains part of the kitchen sink) removes only metals, and does not kill bacterium. The UV component is not hooked up, there is not a place to actually plug it in. We drank from this filter for over 2 weeks, which caused terrible GI issues for both of us and for my wife UTI like symptoms during consumption and which later developed into reactive arthritis type complications. She had to fly back to the states early to get bloodwork and labs done. I have noted to the property manager Pedro that this is an issue. Please ensure that you DRINK ONLY BOTTLED WATER.
