Ulises is a nice guy, and the apartment is in a lively neighborhood with lively plants indoors. We love the location and it totally justifies the many stairs, and we enjoyed our stay in the apartment. The one thing I am upset about this experience is that even though we sent Ulises our flight information, when we got to the building, he was not there. We called him (and luckily we got a local SIM card), and he was not expecting us at all. It took him one hour to get to the apartment, while we had to drag our luggages through the busy Sunday market to find a bar to wait for him. I couldn't imagine what would happen if we didn't have a local phone and just waited him there. The problem is likely to be that he doesn't speak much English and we don't understand Spanish, which led to a less efficient communication.
