We had a wonderfully comfortable and enjoyable stay! What I loved the most was the excellent communication before our arrival and how smooth and easy the check-in process was. Honestly, it’s been the best experience I’ve had renting a vacation apartment. The place was super clean, functional, and cozy. If I had to mention one small improvement, it would be the sofa bed—but everything else was fantastic

Nice place, would stay here again
This was a last minute booking but it turned out great. The host team was easy to deal with and responded quickly to any questions. The unit is in a great location and perfect for 3-5 people. The only issue I saw is the master bathroom. The shower and toilet are in a tiny room and it’s hard to shut the door without stepping into the shower or straddling the toilet. All it needs is the hinges moved so the door swings the other way. I would definitely rent this unit and stay at the El Matador again.

The perfect location! The views are beautiful! Room needs updates, the sliding door going out to balcony was very heavy. Only one elevator was within but didn't seem like we had to wait very long. We've stayed at this location for least 5 years like trying out different rooms

Overall ok
The condo was ok. Dishes had dried food on them, and if you want to cook, you literally need to bring everything. I'm used to rentals that at least basic condiments like salt and pepper. This one had nothing. Also, only one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom. We had to share on the ladt night. Mattress in madter very uncomfortable, but location of condo was good.

Nice view but outdated
The condo wasn’t the best. It’s outdated and the back slider and front door are very difficult to open and close. I wouldn’t rent this unit again knowing there are plenty of other updated units in the complex for the same price or less. Also, if I could do it over, I would rent straight from the matador website or the Holis website.

This unit 450 is in great need of updating. I have stayed at many units within 3 and 4 building. This is very first one that I was disappointed with. The unit needs updated. Doors and locks need replaced. The unit is clean and balcony view is nice but I won’t stay in this unit again until updated. I’ll spend that money in another unit that’s updated and secure useable doors.

Property was good like always. Unit was horrible. #450. Same decor as years before with lots of wear. Owners need to update but why should they when they can get the same rent? So dirty. Had to Clorox wipe everything down. Carpet and furniture not cleaned. Smelled bad. love El Matador. Would not recommend #450. Did not request a change because we were told it was the only 2 bedroom available.

Now 450 needs lots of updating. The kitchen items aren’t all working or modern. Other then these issues we always leave relaxed and tan.

The property was well-maintained and all were friendly. Our unit needs totally updated. I would tell people to bring a lot of their own cooking needs if possible As they are sparse in that unit. It was very difficult to open and close the sliding glass door leading onto the nice big patio from the living room. The stove It is a very uneven cooktop which makes it difficult to cook on. The The view from the balcony and the balcony furniture was very comfortable.
