Positive:
- nice view form the window
- air condicioning with heating function
- the apartment's bell has a screen to see the person ringing from the street
- basic cleaning service
Negative:
- wifi not working properly
(the flat is on the 10th floor but the wifi router is on the 9th floor which is the reason why the wifi signal was stopped working many times a day)
- the window shades dont block the sunlight well
(the disponible window shades dont cover the whole window frame. from 7am on, there is enough light in the bedroom to read a book which deteriorates the quality of sleep significantly. The shades have big stains)
- there is not a proper TV
(there is only a monitor attached to the wall which is too small to use it, e.g. to watch it from the bed. Also the monitor has low quality (insuficient pixels) and one half of the monitor is dark and the other half is lightly colored)
- noise from the elevator
(next to the flat there is a storage room with the machinery of the elevator which is loud at times and can wake you up at night if you dont use earplugs)
- constant noises from the door frame
(the department door doesnt have an isolation part and doesnt fit in the door frame well making noises as if someone is trying to open the door from outside. this sound happens for example whenever there is a wind passage through (through draft) from any of the 10 floors which are part of the staircase. especially at nights these constantly repeating noises from the door frame are very annoying)
- there are ants in the bathroom, the toilet seat needs replacement, no basic amenities disponible (like toilet paper)
(there are ants in the basin sometimes. the toilet seat is very much used with uncountable stains and scratches. it is discolored (gray, yellow, ...), it looks like a toilet seat from a public toilets. It should have been replaced long time ago. Also the host provided only one toilet paper roll (and one small soap for hands) for my 4-weeks stay and refused to provide additional ones with the explanation that "they just dont provide such a service". Thereforebring your own toilet paper.)
- the bed has no duvet
(just a very old blanket and a bed cover leaving a cheap impression)
- the kitchen wasnt usable the first week
(because the cooking set was almost ancient and disfuncional. it looked like a trash that should have been thrown away and not used for cooking. it took one week until the host had replaced it with another used cooking set from another apartment. Some utensils were not disponible eg a wine bottle opener)
Summary:
this place is very basic and doesnt fulfill the needs of a long stay (see the list of negative points above). I find this departament okay but ONLY for a short stay (several nights).
