You cannot beat the location! Short, flat 15 minute walk to the major shops and restaurants. Sundries, coffee shop, brunch spot, burger/hot dog shop, rental car places right in the building. 7-11 and a walking path by the canal just steps away. The city bus stop is just a block away. But I opted for Ubers.
The unit itself is JUST LIKE THE PICTURES! I was so happy! Very clean. My friend and I remarked on how fresh the linens smelled. Beds and pillows are super soft. So if you need a firm bed, may want to keep looking but we slept comfortably. It’s been remodeled so everything is very nice. It had almost everything we needed.
My friend saw 3 roaches on the first night in the bathroom and one under the bar. I had seen just a few reviews about this and was assured it hadn’t been an issue but in an older multi unit building in tropical conditions there are no guarantees. There was a bathroom reno going on next door. We reached out to our host who brought barrier spray the following evening and we only saw one after that. I did feel like this was isolated and the construction may have been part of the problem.
You cannot run the air conditioning all day or the condensation leaks down. We opted to run at night for awhile with the fans, since we were gone all day. Then we’d run it in the morning to stay cool getting dressed.
With that said, I would stay again. The sunrise view is unmatched. You see the mountains, beach, and city from your room. I loved it here. The host was pretty responsive.
