After reading so many great reviews, I was excited to stay here. Unfortunately my stay was less than ideal - the bed is broken so if you move on it, the slats under the mattress fall which is super uncomfortable and a pain to fix, and the dresser pictured has one drawer that works, the rest have literally fallen apart and fell over anytime I opened the one that did work. There’s no lock on the door and it doesn’t actually close all the way. The bathroom has black mold growing in it, a hole in the roof where I’m assuming a fan used to be (there wasn’t one anymore), and the toilet leaks so the floor around it was consistently wet. The kitchen has bugs and although the listing shows that one can use the fridge, it was so full that I only put 3 things in it (some strawberries and 2 water bottles) and half of the strawberries were either eaten by someone else or thrown out.
I never met Javier, but his mom and sister were super kind. The building is nice and it’s a phenomenal location, but unfortunately the other things made it not so great.
