Overall, this is a very fine and adequate apartment. Silvio and Caro are very nice and a maid cleans the apartment once a week. However, I'm not entirely sure why it has received only 5 star reviews up until now. I stayed in the apartment for five weeks, getting to know the apartment quite well. First, there are several pro's. The apartment is clean and bright. The kitchen is impressive for the size of the apartment - the stove top works very well and the refrigerator is substantial. While there isn't a dishwasher, I found it very easy to cook breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The grocery store is very close so all of that was very nice. The location is great - it is very close to several great coffee shops and restaurants yet is still quiet (for being in a large city) at night. Hot water is readily available and lasts fairly long in the shower. The security of the apartment is very impressive and I always felt safe. The building itself locks and then the individual door to the apartment has substantial security. Now for the con's. One of the most disappointing features of the apartment was the bed mattress. Or rather, the 5 inch foam topper that acts as a mattress. For the nightly rate and the superhost standing that Silvio has, I would have expected at least a poor quality true mattress rather than a thin foam slice atop a wooden bed frame. Second, while I completely understand the occasional spider or ant, the bathroom has a fairly serious ant problem. I experienced one ant infestation in which more than 100 ants were swarming over my bathroom items. Caro was kind enough to bring spray the next day, however that did not truly solve the problem. I continued to encounter ants and other small insects regularly in the bathroom. Finally, for foreigners, the apartment contains a large water jug that the hosts offer to refill upon request. As I stayed in the apartment for over a month, I needed refills about once a week. Unfortunately, both Silvio and Caro were very unreliable on this front. My first request to Caro took about 5 days to complete, despite the fact that peddlers sell these jugs everywhere. My second request to Caro went completely ignored as she did not respond to my messages. I then reached out to Silvio, who promptly dropped off a garrafón. However, my subsequent requests to Silvio also went unanswered and I was forced to purchase several jugs of water. While monetarily this was not a huge issue, the completely lack of response from the hosts was problematic. Overall, it was a very fine place to stay but there are some con's that should be taken into consideration for long-term residents.
