We (3 girls) stayed at Petra and Carlos' apartment for a week. The place is really beautiful, it looks exactly like it does in the pictures, super clean and perfect for three or even four people. The location is perfect - right next to El Mercado Central in the old town - we explored almost all of the city by foot. The buses to the beach and so on are also in walking distance (a few minutes). The area is vivid, a lot of bars and places to eat as well as some of the sights and a lot of shops are right around the corner. Petra was very accommodating as one of us arrived a day earlier than the others, she picked her up from the train station and walked her to the apartment and was very helpful with planning our stay. The communication beforehand was also very easy and Petra always replied very quickly and answered all the stupid questions we had. We were also able to check in early and check out late which was great. The apartment does not have wifi, but it was actually really nice so we weren't all on our phones all the time but could enjoy our vacation :) Unfortunately I did not get to meet Petra, but hopefully next time as we will for sure come back, it was a great stay - and I would highly recommend it! Thank you Carlos and Petra! Okka, Lena and Anouk
