Pleasant
Traveller Type: Family with Young Children
  : Good location
  : The building looked abandoned with broken door and stairwell that had seen better days maybe 70 years ago. The sofa bed was just odd too.

Fair
Traveller Type: Family with Young Children
  : Remodeled apartment with many fine features very close to Lourdes sanctuary. Excellent windows to keep out city noise.
  : -Owner has no interest in caring for his guests and does not understand proper hospitality expectations. One of the worst we have seen in 30 years of travel. -External door glass is missing, not secure. Anyone can open. Apartment owner takes no responsibility and makes excuses for every concern raised. -Arrogant owner and condescending to guests. -Very deteriorated and difficult stairway access, 20 circular steps. Very noisy bedroom from thin walls and neighbor's squeeky door. Will wake you at night. Bed is very firm.

  : Interior looks good
  : I arrived at 11pm, 0c, nothing was open as it was low season and I couldn't access the apartment coz they locked up the door with the 3rd key that they didn't provide it for me and the owner is actually living 200 km away. At first they didn't understand the problem I'm facing as they dont speak English and tried to push it on me that I didn't follow well the instructions. Ended up they told me to find a hotel to sleep for the night coz they're living too far. The 2nd option was... they allowed me to break the first door as it's very very very old and luckily there was a guy walk passed by and helped me deal with it after waiting outside alone for an hour. Then... there was a cockroach on the stove, the room was very cold as the heaters aren't sufficient, broken toilet as the water keep running which is very noisy if you don't fix it after each usage. The wall is paper thin that I could hear people next door snore at night and they got up at 7am, walked around making noises in their room... Lastly, they said they'll refund me 40 for the troubles I encountered(only for the locked door tho) but they just disappeared..

  : The location was great, it was easy to get in and out, the apt has everything that you need.
  : The entrance looks rough, but, the apartment is great! Don't let the entrance intimidate you.
