My friend and I had a hodgepot of an experience staying with Maria. Location was great. Expect a fiesty lady who is very chatty, would ask lots of questions, and plunge into stories about her previous guests/life encounters. Guests would be well informed to know that normal talking voice and showers are a no-no here after 10pm as the walls between units are apparently thin, so this listing would work better for early-sleepers. This is a 1-bedroom apartment; Maria sleeps in the living room in a partitioned space.
There is a kitchen, but generally under the purview of Maria so we decided it wouldn't be quite feasible to do any cooking except to boil water. Maria was very kind to make breakfast for us during our stay, although in retrospect we would have advised ourselves to have more discretion and taken our own meals outside.
Overall, value-for-money for budget travellers and quite an experience of a lifetime. Just be sure to read the full listing upfront so you aren't caught by surprise!
