Despite good communication between Marta and her friend who rent this apartment and their best efforts to make our stay enjoyable, I CANNOT RECOMMEND anyone stay here. The apartment itself is as described, was clean and had everything we needed to cook and take care of ourselves for a week. Unfortunately, the LOCATION of the apartment is absolutely horrendous, here's why: 1. This is a ground-floor apartment that is directly next to the street. The photo of the terrace was conveniently taken at a time when there were no cars in the picture, but there is nothing but a small wall and a one-car parking space between the terrace and the street. All of the windows and patio doors open onto this side, which means if you have them open, you will hear constant sounds from this very busy side street from 5 AM until 1 AM. More about that in a moment. 2. The photo of the pool makes it appear as though it is visible from the apartment somewhere, but this isn't the case. It is actually on the other side of the building, only accessible by walking around the entire block, and is used by four buildings in this complex, one of which appears to be a building for low-income residents. More on that in a sec. 3. What appears to be a small side street between this building and the five-star hotel on the other side is actually the street used to supply this huge hotel complex. This means that loud trucks begin driving past to get to the hotel's delivery ramp at the end of the cul de sac starting at about 6 AM. This goes on daily until at least 12 PM. 4. When trucks aren't barreling up the little hill and past the apartment, the residents of the low-income building also situated at the end of the cul de sac spend most of the day driving their cars blaring loud Spanish music or their revved-up dirt bikes back and forth. To make it completely clear, this street is basically like a loud, well-driven highway from 6 AM until about 12 PM EVERY DAY. If you have the windows open - which is a must in the summer since the apartment has no air conditioning (despite other apartments in the building having AC, I spent some time with our neighbors upstairs so I experienced this with my own eyes) - you will wake up every day at 6 AM, guaranteed. Maybe even at 5 AM, as I did most days, because of the freaking rooster nearby that sounds his wake-up call. So if you are looking for rest and relaxation, this place definitely isn't for you (at least not in summer when the windows have to be open. I imagine with everything closed up tight it might be quieter). 5. Not only is the street loud, it is also UNSAFE. My daughter and her friend were sleeping in the room with the two single...
