Overall we liked this apartment and had a good stay. If maintenance of white goods was a little better then we would have had a really good stay.
Good points:
-Location is great, less than 10 minutes walk in either direction to major tourist sites
-The nearest Plaza is lively in the evening and plenty of options for meals.
-Apartment is very light and open, making for a comfortable space to relax in.
-Pictures reflect the reality. The apartment is quite large and comfortable with two toilets and showers
-Security. There's a lock on the door to the street, to the inner section and of course to the apartment itself. The outer facing windows all have security blinds as well.
Bad points:
-Washing machine worked but not very well. The "rapido" (15 mins) setting took over an hour to complete
-Dryer is broken. It was more of a clothes "heater" as opposed to dryer, as it didn't remove the moisture from our clothing at all. It didn't matter what setting it was on, it would stop after a few minutes of ineffectual spinning and give us hot and wet clothes which we needed to hang around the apartment. Maintenance is definitely required
-Thin walls. Could hear conversation from next door apartment pretty easily.
-The AC in the living room and main bedroom stopped on the 2nd night. Quick Google search suggested problem with main unit (flashing green light)
-Linen. There's a choice of soft pillows and even softer pillows. If you need neck support then you're out of luck.
-Shower. The drainage is quite ordinary, so the water collects faster than it can drain out. Be careful or you'll flood the floor
-Hot water capacity. We were a family of three and usually take short showers (5-10 mins max) but the hot water ran out in the first minute of the third person's shower. In summer it's bearable, in winter it could cause chaos
