Good location for sight-seeing, bad location for sleeping.
The bedrooms are on the first floor overlooking the street. There is a lot of NOISE day and night, even with the windows and shutters closed. Busy cafe next door with people drinking and smoking on the sidewalk just under the balcony until 10p. Then the restaurant across the street closes at 1am and always a crowd of drunken people gathers on the street shouting and talking loudly until 2am or later. Garbage trucks and delivery trucks come all night and early morning making a huge racket, shaking the entire building. Weekday mornings there is a traffic jam on the street from 7am with horns blaring and people shouting. We stayed 16 nights and did not have 1 good night of sleep.
SMOKE- both from cigarettes and marijuana - coming into the apartment was a problem too. The workers from the restaurant and security guards from the government building across the street all come and sit under the balcony to smoke. Again, even with the windows closed the foul smell invaded the apartment.
Overall, the apartment is arranged very poorly. The bedrooms which should be dark and quiet get all the light and noise from the street. The living / dining area is windowless, dark and small.
The hosts - Minty Stay - are responsive and helpful, but the communication is too impersonal. We were never given any name and it seemed obvious that different people at Minty were replying to our messages- often repeating the same questions or answers which was frustrating. Better to have one person to interact with the guests.
