The location of the apartment is right across the old town, Casca Viejo, in an area called San Francisco. Imagine a gritty, SOHO New York vibe, hip coffee shops, bars, eateries. With a larger immigrant population in the area expect a more diverse landscape of cultures, foods, and shops. Although this area used to be known as an "unsafe" area to the locals, there was never a moment where we felt unsafe walking around the community. This notion of "unsafe" is because San Francisco used to be an area with some of the "nightlife indulgences," but this has now changed with a revitalization of arts and culture within the area. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!
