Gladiolas 1101

The place is listed as sleeps 6. Yet there were only two bath towels and a floor towel. There was no toilet paper. I had to walk 4 blocks to buy some. There must be someone else on the same remote as the channels kept changing on the TV. The private parking lot is is 1.5 blocks away. Maps was not able find it as the address provided does not match the location of the lot. Probably the lot main office. The place was very clean. There is a food supply kitchen in the building with pans being banged around loudly until around 10pm. I don't know if it was a special weekend or not. But, there was a festival of some sort from Friday through late Saturday night in the six blocks or so from the plaza across the street. The crowded one way streets were a hassle to navigate even with Google maps. The key and parking fob instructions were confusing as they assumed we knew we were accessing lock boxes on the exterior of the building instead of a keypad near the door. Beds are well worn and sagging. Demand hot water heater needed turned on to the max and then ran for about 8 minutes at the shower to get warm. Hot just about the time you finish your shower.

Apartment is dark with windows that face into a courtyard. Wifi stopped working. AC would not stick to the preset temperature. Parking instructions were complicated. The floor space in the building is shared with a restaurant kitchen that has a loud industrial fan and music playing through to 9pm. 3 separate keys open 3 different doors needed to get to the apartment from the street. Basic amenities like coffee were missing. The positive thing is that the location is right next to the central plaza so if that is your primary destination you can overlook all the downsides.

Close to square, shopping, & food. Old world feel. Had everything you need but silverware.
