Maria is the best communicator - responsive and fast! The kitchen is well equipped but the furniture in the living room is either old or uncomfortable. The space is wonderful but the apartment needs paint and updating/maintenance. While there were instructions, I was not able to figure out how to connect my phone or tablet to the TV. The surrounding property is like a beautiful garden. This is a multi-generational complex with families, singles and seniors all living in the same complex. That was an unexpected delight along with the capable and friendly 24 hour security that supervised the locked gate. The 1st floor location and distance from my daughter’s house & metro were perfect for us. My wife found mini marts and bakeries a few blocks away on Avenida Hamburgo, however, we could not find dine-in restaurants nearby. We stayed here for a month and would have appreciated access to laundry services. We were able to do laundry at my daughter’s house.
