Communication with the host was very timely and effective.
The appartment looks mostly like in the pictures, but while the pictures give a feel or good quality finishings, there are a few details that could use some retouching (e.g. shower head, toilet flush leaking, kitchen furnishings, bedroom door not closing properly, AC leaking on to the balcony...).
Nevertheless, I stayed for 1 week amd still had a great time. And I didn't even make use of the pool! Good value for money.
