Loved being so close to beach & metro...however, the apartment needs a deep cleaning; there were dirt marks all over the walls, trim and light switches -- we kept our shoes on due to dirt on the floors, as well. The apt provided adequate fans (ceiling and portable) but in the midst of august, it was a challenge to sleep comfortably; perhaps that was also in part due to the lights from the shared hallway. We had read how many guests gave feedback about this and the hosts responded with curtains but we would recommend black out curtains, as the entire room was filled with light each and every time a person passed-by. The apartment had nice elements that photograph well yet didn't translate in real time to comfort in our experience. We would suggest another chair / seat to accompany the couch given how many people the apt accommodates.
