"Only con about the place is that the walls are paper thin. Bring ear plugs! Apparently roosters don’t only crow during sunrise, they crow all night! And they’re not the only ones. You can hear absolutely everything that is happening outside. But don’t let that deter you from this place. Seems like every hotel in that area is paper thin. It’s a very nice one bedroom apartment that has everything you’ll need. It’s also located near everything. I didn’t realize how tiny the town of Casco Viejo was....

"This was a great location near the plaza, which made it easily accessible to food and shopping. We walked in the apartment and literally fell in love. The decor was nice the, mattresses were comfortable, and it was extremely clean. The balcony views were aesthetically pleasing as well. We had everything we needed there. The host made sure to reach out and let us know they we could contact them about any concerns and needs we might have. It was a perfect location, and a perfect stay."
