We were favorably impressed with the outside appearance except for the steep staircase we weren’t expecting. We felt secure with the security codes used on the gate and the door to our apartment since the overall appearance of the neighborhood is mixed.
The first impression of the apartment was very positive. The windows provided cross ventilation in the living room and kitchen.
The living room and bedroom furniture were in good working order except for one of the reading lamps in the in the primary bedroom. Both AC units worked well and were very quiet. The beds were reasonably comfortable and the linens were very good quality.
We loved the view out of the kitchen window since it provided a panoramic view of the neighborhood and a “peek a boo” view of the ocean!
The refrigerator and stove were full sized and in good shape. The kitchen was “minimally” equipped for cooking in.
The plumbing issues offered the biggest challenge to us. The water pressure in the kitchen sink was very low so we carried hot water from the shower spout for washing dishes thoroughly. The bathroom faucet leaks behind the sink so the water flows onto the counter and sometimes down onto the floor rather than down the drain.
The TV service included many channels but the control box was "recalcitrant" at times!
One of the owners provides taxi and tour guide services that we really enjoyed!
