Cons:

No tienen factura electrónica para empresas.. Tiene que a tualizarse y dar el servicio completo a parte el elige quien usa las instalaciones y eso no es haci... Si haces una reserva es por que se nesecitan y no fue amable...

Pros:

Easy to get to for close stay near airport

Cons:

Did not feel safe in the neighborhood. Arrived at night and a man was following us up to the front door. A little hard to navigate entry into home given multiple gates and turns. Only takes cash payment, which was a hassle to arrange. No AC

Nice place to stay for a short period
Pros:

The location of this apartment is awesome. The staff is very friendly.

Cons:

The parking works, but it's small. Since it's in the heart of the city, there is some noise during the night.

Lovely stay just be mindful about coming in and out of the apartment because you have to go through the main house.
Pros:

It was lovely.

Cons:

Having to go through the main house to get to the apartment felt a little intrusive for them more than me.

Just good for 1 night stay, not for a week.
Pros:

Good location.

Cons:

No specific street address to program into Google maps. No air conditioning. Beetle bugs everywhere on walls and floor. Fruit flies were all over our bed sheets so apparently we were sleeping with them all night. No towel handles in the bathroom so just the 1 night, we threw our towels on the floor. Kitchen garbage bin had a non functioning lid so we stuffed our food takeout garbage into the tiny bathroom garbage. The setting to adjust shower head pressure / temperature was too high up to adjust so ended up taking a cool shower. Finally, it was really awkward to use the key pass to open two gates to access room.
