Caroline and Cesar were very responsive and helpful hosts. The space and location are as advertised. The exterior of the home is beautiful. The view is gorgeous.
The interior of the apartment is cozy but a little crowded, especially if there were 3 guests (we were two). The kitchen was well-equipped. Bedside lamps and newer/more pillows would be lovely. The oven was dirty, but that’s not the end of the world.
This would have been a pretty nice apartment if it weren’t for the bathroom-the bathroom is an odd space. While it does have the jacuzzi as advertised, we weren’t sure how to adjust the water temperature. The bathroom is very dimly lit and appears to be a converted furnace room now containing a washer, a laundry cabinet/counter/sink, another double sink, and toilet. The toilet must lose some water from the tank every 5-10 minutes because the water starts running to fill it. There is a
Dehumidifier that helps blunt this noise, and it helped block the noise of the dogs upstairs that barked nonstop for over an hour in the late evening. Cesar later advised that he was out and the dog was stressed. Again, not the end of the world-it happens!
Caroline and Cesar’s general friendliness and responsiveness made this stay a good one. While I stand by my comments on the apartment, they are not intended to be hostile. Some attention to detail and lighting could be a game-changer. On balance, I would recommend this flat to anyone-just be aware that it is a bit more utilitarian than perhaps described.
