The experience staying with Mercedes was very nice and as expected from the posting and from previous reviews. Mercedes is a sweet lady and her dog Stevie is fun as well. The apartment couldn't have been in a better location, and the terrace overlooking the plaza where we ate the breakfast that Mercedes prepared for us was great. It was a bit of commotion with all the guests around and having a shared bathroom (which could have been cleaner), so I would just advise to be prepared for that.
