Aurora vacation rentals

Excellent apartment

Place was great, room rate was reasonable but fees were too high. Final cost was 6 times higher than room rate!

The apartment was very nice and the location couldn't be beat. The photos were accurate and the manager was very easy to work with. It is priced on the higher end, in my opinion, and there were a few items that needed attention. I have communicated them with the manager and am comfortable he will deal with them appropriately.

Overall we had a great stay. The apartment is located in the heath of Miraflores, with walking distance to shops, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. The unit has everything we needed during our stay. If I can only make one recommendation to the host, that will be to find a way to make the beds more comfortable because they are very stiff. Other than that, we highly recommend staying here.

Loved the apartment I had a wonderful experience everything was within walking distance.

Three of us stayed here with 2 friends joining us for a night. There are 2 queen beds, a single, and a pull out sofa. For a city apt, it was quiet at night. The apt is located on a side street/not a through street. The beds were comfortable. There are 2 bathrooms/showers. One in suite the other in hallway. The kitchen was adequately stocked with cooking pans and utensils. Stove worked well. Dining room table was nice size with 7 chairs. We didn't use tv much but it worked fine with a variety of Netflix, etc. to choose from. Washing machine and dryer worked well. The apt. is on the 3rd floor. Each floor is it's own apartment so you get an elevator key that goes direct to your apt. We were in walking distance to a large grocery store (8? to 10? blocks), plus many restaurants, fruit stands, coffee shops, etc. in the area. It's about a 20 min. walk to the beach. Weather in January was great. Mid 70s, mostly sunny with an ocean breeze most days. Our hostess, Miriam, was good at communicating with us (mostly communicated in Spanish, I'm not sure how good her English is- but phones are pretty good translators these days). She was prompt to respond and encouraged us to contact her with any questions. The apt. is secured with gate and night time security guard but we were out at night and never felt any concerns. Our friend forgot keys and earbuds when checking out and Miriam was very helpful and able to get the items returned. We would love to return here. Thanks Miriam.

Great experience and great host

This very spacious apartment can easily support a family of four. The kitchen is well appointed and very usable if you want to cook your own meals (we did). Beds are very comfortable. The entire apartment is spotlessly clean. Lots of storage, too. The location is very central to Miraflores, right on the Av Alfredo Benavides. While there is a lot of traffic noise even on the eighth floor, this is Lima and the drivers love their horns, especially the taxis. Vivanda (high end grocery) is about 150 meters down the street. Be safer and walk down to the cross walks with walk lights, but even then keep a sharp eye out for turning traffic! Realize that, again, this is Lima. Most apartments, and even offices, are NOT climate controlled. No heating or cooling. This is true for this apartment, as well. There is a very small, but effective portable heater for winter and a nice fan for summer. If you want to experience Lima as a resident, this is perfect for you! The only down-side worthy of mention is that most of the electrical sockets are in poor working order and need to be replaced. They still work, if you're patient, but this could be easily remedied. I should also mention that, due to the Pan American Games, we needed to stay another three days beyond our planned departure. Miguel was extremely kind to allow us to stay longer on a per-day basis. Finally, this apartment is very secure. There is a 24/7 doorman, the door and lock is very solid, and there is a small safe in the master bedroom. It was a very fine and pleasant stay. A spacious, comfortable and inexpensive apartment. Thank you, Miguel!
