Mixed reviews. Location great for beach, icebergs pool, shops and restaurants. Street not recognized by uber and taxi so they kept going to the main road and missing us. Apartment was clean but with caveats. The alley outside had smelly overflowing garbage cans at entrance. The alley to reach the VERY narrow and dis- repaired cracking slippery stairs had open sewers and for two days was further narrowed by stacks of tents from downstairs tenants. Those tenants did use courtyard and were friendly and quiet. The apartment itself had one nicer bathroom and one that was really an adapted utility closet with a very loud water pump making flushing impossible at night. Both bathrooms had roaches come through the pipes nightly and there were roaches on the outside stairs frequently day and night. The online photos are not representative of the rooms. Only 2 bedrooms had AC units and the fan remotes had no batteries (the ones dropped off were the wrong size, we had to purchase) Only 1 towel per person—small and thin and no washcloths. Kitchen well appointed. Dryer vents inside heating already hot space. Windows in bedrooms didn’t close due to ill-fitting AC ducts. One room had aluminum foil over the windows to cover the open areas. Lots of small and lg spiders. TV didn’t work. Deadbolt doesn’t actually lock, only flimsy door handle does. Broken lamps. Toaster doesn’t work. Location great overpriced for a not so great space.
