A fuire
Logement très vétuste et sale.
Notre chambre donnée sur la cuisine commune où on ne pouvait pas dormir.
Le logement est situé dans les hauteurs de la ville impossible de vous garer, la rue a monter est San Francisco oui comme aux etats unis il vous faut un bon cardio et de bonnes jambes pour monter toutes ces marches !!! On etait dans des favelas.
A fuire !

Die Badetücher rochen stark nach Feuchtigkeit. Die Lage hoch am Berg. Keine Parkplätze an der Unterkunft. Ansonsten sehr sauber. Das Bett super bequem. Die Unterkunft fein und modern.

YOU NEED A CAR
It would have been nice if they would somehow warn you that you shouldn't come by foot. Definitely take a car/taxi up this bloody hill. We were both fit and it was exhausting to drag our luggage and belongings up the hill to the hotel. Definitely would not recommend to stay here if you dont have a car/taxi because you'll be hiking up and down all day. Room itself was nice and clean and the shared kitchen and dining room was well equipped and pretty. Breakfast was very basic, dont have high expectations, better to go get some groceries if you'd like some proper food.

Encontré demasiadas cucarachas durante mi estancia. Es normal en una zona húmeda, pero no entiendo que no se mantenga mejor para evitar tener que compartir espacio con estos insectos
