I was really happy with Mara's place. The location is aces. SUPER quiet for sleeping, but walkable to several yummy restaurants (Cafe Brasil!). The garden is tranquil and though you are close to Mara's house, the rental unit is cunningly tucked away in it's own fenced garden to afford you great privacy. The hot tub was lovely, surrounded by bamboo. The windows and light were wonderful. Please note it is a HUGE studio, very spacious, but there is not a door to the bedroom.
