Javier is an amazing host and helped make our first visit to the city an extreme success. The space is very clean and newly renovated as described will all the amenities of home. The apartment and building are very secure, and it is surprisingly quiet for a city space. There is a lot to do in the neighborhood but it is not overwhelmed by tourists either - instead you will find locals of all ages with a few stray tourists and beachgoers, so it felt like an authentic city experience which we appreciated. There are many small cafes with excellent food and bodegas within steps of the apartment, and Javier will provide valuable suggestions on the best places to visit.
This is a wonderful apartment for families, and was ideal for us as it is also walking distance to the conference center if you are attending to business. We enjoyed our time at the beaches and Javier provides details regarding which spots are best for families versus adults. The metro is a few blocks away and easy to navigate, so it is a great base for exploring the city, and relaxing at the beach at the end of the day!
Javier is a gracious, warm, and responsive host - we cannot reccommend him enough! He arranged our taxi trip back to the airport, which we also appreciated tremendously. Our best Airbnb experience by far. Thanks Javier!
