There were tons of flies in the apartment. The noise from the streets and the other neighbors was extremely loud at all times, even during the middle of the night. The walls are paper thin. I couldn't sleep and had to pay for hotel rooms to get some rest. Right outside the building's entrance is a pickup spot used by prostitutes (along with some shady looking men who looked like pimps). They are there at almost all times trying to get dates. They were often extremely loud and boisterous, even at 7 on a Saturday morning. The apartment just had a dirty feel about it, inside and out. The main room window looks down onto an empty lot that is full of trash, it's almost a landfill. The host Silvia was extremely rude and disrespectful when I brought my concerns to her. She insinuated I was lying about the noise, and I shouldn't mind the prostitution because 'they are people too', and 'haven't you ever gone to a red light district like in Amsterdam?'. Literally her words. She was completely unprofessional and a horror to deal with.
