The location is very central and very convenient but removed just slightly (which I prefer). Everything in the apartment is new and immaculate and the design is really lovely. There truly is a great deal to appreciate about this apartment.
There is an opportunity around communication. It was difficult to obtain all check-in details which made the day of check-in very stressful while trying to manage international logistical issues. It wasn't until I was inside the building very late and thankfully able to connect to their wifi that I was given the unit number. Thankfully there was a backup plan in place by host management as the codes given did not work. I appreciate that they were available late, for if they had not been I would have been stranded and in need of a hotel late at night. This is of course the reason why I make sure to be transparent about my communication and expect others to be as direct and honest with theirs. One never knows what might go wrong.
One day while I was sleeping I was also asked permission to have maintenance enter the apartment. However, I was asleep so did not see the message and someone repeatedly rang the door, knocked, and tried to enter. Even after explaining that all was working perfectly and that they were not welcome at that time, they continued to try and enter. This was said in both Spanish and English, so there was no language barrier. Though I was asked over Airbnb for permission, no one waited for my response (or permission) before disturbing me and trying to enter. They did later apologize and were flexible about the check-out time.
No one is perfect, often with Airbnb's some little thing happens, but I am writing this because it is important feedback to consider as people's safety should be the priority and there were consistent opportunities around this. I am not going into all of them. The good news is that it is an easy fix! I trust that those who own the apartment will ensure management takes better measures in the future.
Again, there is much to appreciate and enjoy about this unit!
