My friend and I would definitely recommend Elena's place. Elena was a fantastic host and communicated well so everything was efficient. Elena was very helpful and arranged for a taxi to take us to the airpot on on return home.

The apartment was well equipped and is in a fantastic location in the heart of the Santa Cruz and very convenient for seeing all the main sights.

We were also with a 7 month old baby and Elena was able to provide a cot and a highchair which was very helpful. We didn't have too much problem with the stairs as there is a lift to get to the first floor so having a buggy with the baby was manageable.

The terrace was very welcoming and the view of the cathedral is beautiful. It was a little too chilly at night in November to use though.

The floors inside are all marble so if going during the cooler months we would recommend bringing a warm jumper and it did get a little cold at night.

Overall, we loved the flat and had a great stay and would stay again! Many Thanks Elena!
