8/10 Very Good! (1 review)

Overall it was a good space for the 6 people that we had. Kitchen was handy. I recommend that they have mirrors in each bedroom considering that there is only one bathroom. It would be nice to have some extra trash bags.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (110 reviews)

We stayed in the private apartment for three nights. The location is great for exploring the South Coast. We could have easily stayed here longer as there is so much to see and do within an hour or so of drive. The apartment was roomy and well equipped. We had a full kitchen with a little dishwasher. We had beautiful views of the horse farm, and mountains in the distance. There was also a river behind the farm.

Staff was the best. Went out of their way in every way. Location is perfect. It is a bit noisy but that is only because it is located in a bustling area, replete with bars and restaurants. Close to the harbor and everything downtown. It is truly a best kept hotel secret in this marvelous city.
