Patricio’s place was *super super* safe and hotel-like clean, just as the pictures showed. I was there with four other friends and it was good for us, being that we were out and about most of the time. It was really nice to have two bathrooms (the towels are so plush!), and the washer drier was another benefit that we hadn’t really considered but were so thankful to have. The proximity to our activities and the neighborhood made it nice and convenient. The water, snacks, and ease of communication were really thoughtful and appreciated!
There are some things that weren’t a big issue for us, but would be helpful to know in gauging whether this place is for you. I don’t mean for these to be criticisms, we were comfortable and happy and the listing is not inaccurate, but I could see others having trouble with a few elements and I always think it’s better to know whah to expect ahead:
- Quite noisy when windows are open or fans are on (earplugs did the trick for me at night and are thoughtfully provided as mentioned in the description). A bit too stuffy for us if we didn’t use fans or window (no AC).
- Living room window opens big and doesn’t have a screen. Totally fine for adults, but if I had a child I would not want it open due to safety concerns (see above, a bit too hot when closed up).
- Bed in the non bunk room is on the small side. We were two adult women sharing it and it felt smaller than a double bed in the US, both in terms of length and width. If you are a couple that cuddles up, no worries, but if you are taller than 5’8 or friends, it may feel more cozy than you are expecting. I moved to the couch instead, which was comfortable. Window shades in this room are also fairly thin, which may be bothersome to light sleepers since it faces a busy/active street. The room never got very dark.
- This is obviously a minor detail, but can be helpful (especially for the ladies/anyone on a girl’s trip with more than two people), there is no wall-mounted full length mirror and the bathrooms are for single person use. There is a free standing long mirror but limited room for it.
