Gabriel’s apartment was just as shown. It’s a lovely two bedroom apartment with very comfortable beds and decent size bathrooms off each. The kitchen area was small, but more than adequate with most of the basics that you would need to cook a light meal. Some extra cooking utensils, prep bowls, storage containers, a small cooler, and some basic sundry items (ie: Salt and pepper, sugar, twin, tea, instant coffee and sandwich type bags, to name a few) would definitely be an added benefit for anyone staying at the apartment! Also a cleaning cloth and a mop would be nice in case of a spill.
The apartment looked like it had been freshly painted throughout. It was quite clean and bright. It had a small deck you could sit out on which offered lots of shade as it was in the back of the building. The apt was very quiet and very easy to enter and leave once you checked in. The pool was beautiful, it was large and there were lots of lounging chairs!
Having a little leeway in getting in a little earlier would’ve gone a long way in making our arrival much easier!! We were told that we could leave our bags at the main building with reception, and the gentleman there was good enough to take it and put it behind the desk, but he made it clear that they were not supposed to do it?? And although check in may be 3 or 4 PM, at any rental place we have ever stayed, in all of the travelling we have done, if you arrive to your destination a cpl hrs early and the place is ready, there’s never been an issue with us getting in a little earlier! But we were not given access to the very last minute basically:( even though I’d messaged Gabriel several times to ask if we could get in. He said he’d send it shortly, and two hours later I still didn’t have it and had to send a cpl other msg’s again to ask for a code :( I had some refrigerated items that we’d taken from our last rental in Tampa that we would have liked to have gotten in the fridge at least! So I think you need to loosen up on the access time when the room is ready, as it was in this instance from what the desk clerk said,
Overall we had a very comfortable stay, & a really comfy sleep, at Gabriel’s apartment.
