Our family of four stayed here for the entire month of June. We completely felt at home as it had everything we needed for a lovely stay. The home is spacious, beautifully decorated, very comfortable and Carmen is a very welcoming and gracious host. She had fresh flowers in every room and drinks waiting for us upon our arrival. Plus, she regularly offered suggestions of fun places to go and things to do. She was also super-fast answering our messages which it’s always a great help when you’re away from home.
The location (just off Plaza de la Merced in a quiet street called Madre de Dios) was perfect for us as our sons were taking Spanish classes nearby and we were really in the heart of the city center with museums, historic sights and buildings, all sort of shops, restaurants, walking tours, the beach… all just a few minutes’ walk from the apartment. The perfect location, brilliant, really! While it’s a very lively area and you can hear the street noises from the front living room, the bedrooms are in the back towards an indoor courtyard and are very quiet at night.
The beds were very comfortable and there was a cleaning lady who changed our sheets and towels regularly. WiFi is strong. There is air-conditioning in each room which was fantastic during the hot days of June. The washing machine was great too and there was plenty of space to line dry our clothes. We cooked at home daily and the stove is a very good induction type. If you don’t want to cook, there are many restaurants across the street, supermarkets, bakeries, and even a location where you can buy home-made food at very affordable prices.
We certainly recommend this apartment. It’s just as stylist as you see in the photos and we hope to visit again!
