The apartment itself presents well in a handy location near many bus stops just off the CBD pace.
On the down side the view is not great.
On a personal note we locked ourselves out of the apartment in the early evening and could not raise the host by mobile for some time and it was just as long then to have the situation resolved. Paid on-the-spot unreceipted $50 for our mistake. Knew about the charge beforehand.
This raises the general issue of locking yourself out of an apartment.
It is not about apportioning blame because it is the guests who always locks themselves out. Their fault.
But this situation will continue to happen.
What can be done to serve the interests of both guest and host?
One of a number of answers to the problem lies in having a second key on the premises that can be accessed by code.
While it is the fault of the guest in locking themselves out, it is the responsibility of the host to be always available promptly by phone (or a second person if unavailable) and to look after the guests well-being without penalty (in reasonable circumstances). Living far away from the apartment should not be the basis for levelling a charge.
