The space itself was alright but there were two major issues that put a damper on the trip.
The pros: The little kitchen and living room were definitely the highlights of the place. The location is convenient to nice beaches and a shopping center if you need groceries. The bed was comfortable. There are guide books in the apartment as well as dvds and books.
The cons: First, when we arrived, there was a window that was without a screen and missing an entire window pane. Despite informing the host of this immediately, and him promising to send someone out to fix it, it was never fixed. So, because of this, I was eaten by mosquitoes the entire time we were there. Second, and the primary issue of the trip, was that one evening while getting ready to go out to dinner I decided to blow dry my hair in the living to get away from the hot, steamy bathroom. Shortly after beginning to blow dry my hair, almost the entire power to the studio went out include the AC, the fridge, all the lights, etc. The host was unreachable to address the issue. My husband, who is a licensed electrician said all he need was to find the electrical panel box. However, it was in another LOCKED unit across the hall. So we were without power and air conditioning until the next day when someone finally came to unlock the other unit for us so we could turn everything back on. This sort of electrical problem shouldn't happen in the first place, but if you know you've done shotty electrical work, you need to provide access to the electrical panel. It's just unsafe otherwise and probably illegal. Anyway, other than that the bathroom smelled really musty, the shower curtain had mold on it, and the cleaning job was pretty poorly done. Also, the chain to work the fan (which is mounted on a high vaulted ceiling) was pulled off and never fixed despite bringing this to the host's attention.
