January 2018,
Silvio’s loft is in an old building located on the third floor with no elevator. Everything in is very old. The little kitchen needs to be renovated, it could use a new stove, refrigerator and more shelves on the walls. The dining table is too small for 4 people. There was only one small pot in the kitchen when we arrived and after asking for a tea kettle and one more pot we received an electric kettle which didn’t work. There is a small table in the kitchen area which should be refurbished or changed.
We shared this apartment with cockroaches crawling on the walls and floor.
The bathroom should have more hooks to hang towels on and the bathtub is very damaged and should be replaced.
Silvio seems to be a nice person and we had good communication with him and his manager Gustavo. When we arrived, Silvio offered us a better place to stay but the price was quite a bit higher.
We liked the location of this loft, it is close to both the beach and 3rd Street Promenade and the beds were comfy.
