We really enjoyed our stay at the Patio for six days in early September. The bed is REALLY comfortable and the shower is great. Across the street is a lovely hip mall and it’s close by all the smaller, more accessible restaurants, bars, and shops, but a bit of a walk takes you to the bigger luxury stores and attractions. It is, as described, on the ground floor, so you are right next to the street with people and cars going by. The outdoor area is underneath the rest of the building’s balconies but it wasn’t an issue. Maria was very communicative and helpful with suggestions and recommendations!
