Wendell was friendly, welcoming, and, thank goodness, understanding. Not truly realizing what traffic is like there, I had significantly miscalculated my check in time.
The pictures reflect Wendell’s place very accurately - luxurious, comfortable, and relaxing. There is everything you need for your comfort and ease, with extra blankets and pillows; shampoo, conditioner, etc. in the bathroom (along with two hair dryers). Wendell takes you through and shows you where everything is, where extra items are kept, what keys to use in the various doors, etc. and encourages you to be at home.
Most unfortunately, I was not able to take advantage of the many amenities that Wendell has to offer (please read about them if you haven’t already!), as my trip suddenly turned very hectic, running around to deal with an unexpected situation that couldn’t wait. But it was wonderful to be able to go back to that room at the end of the day!
The apartment is located close to EVERYTHING, it seems. Restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, public transit, the beach, even a grocery store and a pharmacy. All within easy walking distance. (I’m not sure about the beach, I never made it this trip. But it is a close drive.) But for all the central location and activity, within the apartment gates it was very quiet. And by and large I heard no noise from the outside when I was in my room. Lovely and peacefully quiet at the same time.
All in all, I highly recommend staying here. Every aspect of the accommodations were thoughtful, convenient, comfortable, pleasant, and very much appreciated.
