Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We've stayed at El Matador 3 times now and this has been our favorite condo so far! Very clean, without the use of harsh, too strongly scented products. Furnishings were stylish and comfortable and the views from the bedroom and balcony are fantastic! There is current construction going on, but it didn't affect our stay at all. Wonderful stay! We'll be back!
