Well, sincerely the apartment was quite dirty and we even saw some roaches in the kitchen area. Shower is just a pipe from the wall. Toilet doesn't flush properly. Lock from the apartment's door doesn't work properly also, so we decided not to lock at all. But if you are corageous in the heart the place is realy close to the subway so you can be at Manhattan in 25 minutes or so. We communicated mainly with Orlando (friend of the owner Santiago) and he was quite responsive. All and all, we survived and enjoyed the city.
