Stay away. This place looks nothing like the beautiful photos and is a living nightmare. First of all, the door separating the patio and the rest of the apartment has a huge gap that lets in mosquitos and ants. I’m talking 10+ bites in a single night. The bed is uncomfortable and has mildew stains on it.
The apartment is noisy since you can hear the host downstairs, the staircase is indeed a nightmare and frankly dangerous while trying to carry luggage up and down.
The WiFi is spotty at best and non existent at worst.
The shower leaks all over the bathroom.
The toilet has no privacy whatsoever since there is no wall between it and the bedroom and rest of the apartment.
Jose took forever to reply to my messages. I had to shorten my stay due to an emergency and the best that Jose could offer was to make me pay for 3 of the 6 remaining nights (that I wasn’t able to stay for).
Jose cut off the power and internet before we even had a chance to check out (after the first night) even though i was paying for an additional 3 nights.
So a single night cost me close to 200$ for one of the most misleading listings I’ve ever run into on Airbnb. Do yourself a favor and find something else. There are SO many good places around this wonderful neighborhood, Jose’s is not one of them.
