The place is clean, and very cozy it really feels like home. The host was amazing, always friendly and attentive. The location is very central, so everything is close by, and the airport shuttle service was a huge plus, super convenient. I would definitely recommend it and would stay here again without a doubt.

Great place to stay if you're looking for a night just before a morning flight. No personal check in needed, codes to enter are easy to use and apartments are easy to find. Small room, but perfectly enough; we just missed an AC although the fan did its work.

The staff made this place remarkable. They were happy to help with anything I needed and encouraged me to practice my Spanish. I loved the Location and for a history geek like me the museum across the road was a bonus. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

The service of the transfer from the airport was very nice and in time, Juan waited for us just outside from the airport. The house is big and has a beautiful view and it has all that you need. We wanted to get some snacks after arrival at the house and Juan offered to drives us to the shop and back.
