O apartamento é foi totalmente limpo no dia da chegada da hospede pela manhã. Faxina completa, portanto o comentario sobre a limpeza não condiz com a realidade. O apartamento costuma atender e agradar quem se hospeda com a gente. Infelizmente tivemos alguns problemas com esta hóspede e talvez este tenha sido o motivo deste comentário. A maioria dos nossos hospedes gostam da estadia se tornam nossos clientes. Apesar de ser um apartamento simples possui varanda com rede para relaxar apreciando a vista e tem ar-condicionado split para os dias de calor.
