To All,
The place was perfect for us. Here is a list of our pros and cons.
PROS:
Location: everything was within walking distance.
Security: nothing ever made us feel threatened. We walked around early in the morning and late at night without fearing for our safety.
People: if you speak Spanish, the conversations you can have with the locals is priceless. There were many foreigners in this area. Please engage with the people as they will surprise you with their knowledge.
Place: spacious and comfortable. The bed was firm but comfortable.
CONS
Place: The only 3 things that one would have to consider would be the shower, stairs, and outside noises. There is only 1 shower and it is quite small. 2 people cannot shower at the same time. The shower is located in the bedroom area and too small to dry yourself in it. I was trying to avoid the coldness from the room so I attempted to dry myself in the shower but it didn't work out for me. There is no elevator in this area and you have to do bring your luggage up 3 flights of stairs. 2 flights to get to the loft's door and 1 to get to the bedroom. There is a stairway to access the living room area as well. The walls are very thin and you will hear people talking. In the mornings, there was a man selling "stuff" and yelling. The dogs barking at all hours.
In conclusion, if you are ok with stairs, a tight spaced shower, and noise, this is the PERFECT place for anyone. My boyfriend and I loved it the moment we walked in. We felt secure at all times. The kitchen appliances were a nice touch.
