Apartamentos Olivia by gaiarooms
Arrived with a broken elevator and left seven days later without the elevator having been repaired. Room was clean neighborhood not the best. The building is behind another building and is in a dark corner. It felt unsafe because of the graffiti and trash though we had no incidents.
