Our 11 days at Inés's place were fantastic. There is something so special about staying in a place where someone lives on occasion. It makes all the difference in the quality of the furniture, kitchen appliances right down to the small things like high end pots and pans. This apartment is bright, light and has a designers touch, with personalized art throughout, interesting books on design, journalism and history, and real plants.
Coming from North America, we had to get used to the diminished water pressure, but that isn't unique to this place.
Ultimately, we were so comfortable living there experiencing the local fitness center, restaurants, grocery store and beach promenade. Magnifique!
