This apartment 'Rogers Palace 1' is extremely spacious with wood floors, nice kitchen with new appliances and three large bedrooms. Everything was very clean and exactly as pictured in the photographs. The kitchen had enough equipment to make simple meals, a dishwasher and a full size refrigerator. There were more than enough bath towels, the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was spotless.
Garcia was great replying to our messages very quickly, and when the lockbox code didn't work he sent the new one within a few minutes.
What a shame that this apartment is in a rather run down dirty neighborhood; stores are shuttered with graffiti covered roll-up doors, bars are on many windows and paper rubbish is trodden into the sidewalks.
On our last night, a Thursday, the shuttered store directly underneath the apartment opened up to reveal a shining white interior which was transformed into a nightclub! The loud, floor-shaking music started at 4pm when they were setting up, was still going when we returned later - deafening music, disco lights, drinking, etc, and continued until after midnight. Even after the music stopped the party continued outside in the street for at least another hour. A neighbor told us that these nightclub events happen 'now and then' so you can take your chance if you wish!
Although 'Rogers Palace' itself is a lovely 5 star apartment, I'm afraid that I can't recommend it because of the seedy noisy location. We would not stay there again.
