Beautiful apartment with a few issues
While the listing for this apartment appears directly on this platform, it is actually managed by a third-party company named CostaSur, necessitating communication and payment through their portal. Direct contact with the owner, Daniel, via WhatsApp was essential for key arrangements, as he doesn't appear to monitor platform messages here. The apartment itself impresses with spaciousness, tasteful decoration, cleanliness, and a comprehensive range of amenities, complemented by the flexibility of an early check-in.However, the ground-floor location adjacent to a busy road, frequented by both pedestrians and buses, significantly detracts from the tranquility, making restful sleep elusive due to persistent noise, including that from the garage door. Additionally, a noticeable sewage-like odor emerged when the apartment was left unoccupied for a few hours. The electricity requires activation via a hotel-style key card, inconveniently tethered to the key, thus precluding the ability to charge devices in one's absence. The absence of provided shampoo was another minor inconvenience.The welcome was conducted by Daniel's parents, who, while very friendly, communicated exclusively in Spanish. Fortunately, my understanding of the language sufficed to comprehend the essentials of our stay.Despite these issues, the apartment's quality and amenities still commend it for consideration, albeit with caveats regarding noise and communication.
