Maite's home is in a great location. Walkable to El Retiro and just a couple steps away from a metro stop. There's a grocery store and great bakeries nearby. However, there was an unpleasant odor outside the courtyard before entering the apartment. It either came from the hanging laundry or from the unit next door. We later realized that the super of the building keeps the apartment trashbins inside the unit next door. The apartment was a great value and clean, but it would be best suited for people who plan on not being at the apartment for most of the day. There's also no cell service, so you're dependent on the landline or the Wifi. Again, great location and value. Maite was very responsive, and her brother-in-law who checked us into the apartment was very friendly.
