“BE CAREFUL: It's a scam, the location is horrible!”

The best

Inside, the apartment was clean.

To be improved

I saw the beautiful pictures and excellent reviews on Booking and thought I'd book a nice relaxing apartment. That's not what I got. The apartment is located in a dangerous area right next to a five-lane road with heavy traffic (I've marked the apartment in the first image). You can sit outside, sure, but you won't want to because the traffic is too loud to maintain a conversation. You could escape the noise by strolling the area, but it's run down, and the nearest decent restaurant is a 45-minute drive away. Don't worry, the nearest beach isn't much closer. Inside the apartment, the street noise persists and is joined by the noise of the host living above flushing their toilet. I tried to reason with the host to check out a few days earlier but to no avail. So, I was stuck staying in that place for a week. All in all, the location is horrible, the host is unhelpful, and the price is very high. Don't be like me and stay somewhere else! I can only assume that the other reviews are fake of have been bought.
