8/10
I really wanted to enjoy the entirety of my stay - I loved the staff, they provided great service with smiles, I enjoyed talking with the maids and front desk attendants, breakfast was delicious, I had privacy, the area was walkable for food options, and the apartment was mostly comfortable (the bars play music until at least 11:30pm every night, which was fine for me, but not for everyone). I honestly would probably stay here again only if I was more comfortable. I booked for 15 nights and stayed 8, partially because other plans had changed, but I was ready to leave.
I could not get rid of the mosquitos. My body doesn't typically react so I don't usually mind them, but they were nonstop from somewhere (under the door? Sink?) and I killed more in 8 days than I have in my entire life. And I grew up in a rural place with lots of backwaters and mosquitos. It became almost a psychological battle in my room that I couldn't fight anymore so I relented to them swarming my shoes, clothes, and bed. I even woke up to bites that my body was reacting to. I killed a few that I hoped had my blood and not somebody else's.. Also, my bars of soap were taken over by swarms of ants from behind the tilea. That was easy to correct by keeping everything in containers, and I kept any food safely in the fridge so that was never an issue.
Overall, fine place for the price. But if you need reliable wifi, make sure you have a data plan on your phone. If you want to avoid bugs, advocate for yourself
