My girlfriend and I had a fabulous experience at the Estancia Santa Rosa de Lima, and we can wholeheartedly recommend the place.
The entire neighbourhood is breathtakingly beautiful – especially if you’re coming from a place like LA where much of the city is devoid of trees. There are a number of nice coffee shops on Avenida Mazatlan, opposite the building’s entrance. There’s a small 7-Eleven on the other side for water, etc. A lovely church (if that’s your thing), yet on another side.
The apartment was very clean, which we much appreciated. (The entrance hallway on the ground floor, on the other hand, hosted some small insects, but the situation improved in the course of our ten-day stay.) Anyways kudos and thanks to the cleaning people of the apartment.
Communication with Federico was almost instantaneous and very pleasant. The washer and dryer are better than what we have at home. They are located a floor above on the roof. Internet is fast. We didn’t use TV or such. What else? The one thing I’d perhaps note is that some of the rooms would welcome some TLC – there’s a faucet in the bathroom that should be fixed; one could use a properly cut curtain in the bedroom; one of the sheets had a hole. But these are just details. The living room is really lovely, with a great view on Ave. Mazatlan. I was working there.
