We stayed 2 nights, and have mixed feelings about this place.
Pros:
- Central location shopping and restaurants and metro stations within walking distance
- Stiff bed mattress
- Good fan over the bed, we ended up not using much of the AC but instead using the fan most of the time.
- There is fridge so you can keep some fresh food
Cons:
- As mentioned by others place is right above a bar/club that works with open door till 2 am on week days and 4 am on weekends. Music is blasting, and on top you can hear loud people on the street until place closes down. so definitely bring earplugs, noise cancelling headset, or anything that works.
- place is very tiny. while it was shown on the pictures i failed to realize how tiny it is. for two, a bit bigger people it was hard to move around in the room and in the bathroom, but we didn't stay in apartment long as we were mostly out.
- on the second (last) night we saw bugs that looked like cockroaches in the kitchen. the host didn't agree to give us partial refund, but said they will get rid of bugs for the next guest (didn't help us, but hopefully will be fixed for others)
Honora, the host, was responsive during our stay and check in via lockbox was very smooth.
As I said, mixed feelings about the place: it was ok for a short stay and was cheaper than other options, but next time I would find another place.
