Rummet var trevligt liksom personalen och bekvÀmligheterna. Det luktade lite avlopp i rummet. Boendet lÄg högst upp pÄ höjden i San Jose. Mötte en lös aggressiv schÀfer nÀr jag tov trapporna och lÀnde mig mindre trygg efter det. Fick ont i knÀt av trapporna. Det borrades pÄ taket 1 av 4 dagar. En annan dag stod man o bilade pÄ andra sidan vÀgen.

Stanza pulita e confortevole . Cucina in comune con tutto l’occorrente e terrazzo solarium dove prendere il sole o stendere i panni . Difficile trovare parcheggio nelle vicinanze ,inoltre c ù una salita per arrivare all’alloggio. Fermata bus nelle vicinanze.

On etait dans des favelas. A fuire !

Die BadetĂŒcher rochen stark nach Feuchtigkeit. Die Lage hoch am Berg. Keine ParkplĂ€tze 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.

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