I might have missed this, but I didn't realize that in order to check in, you've to pick up the keys at a separate location, a 2-3 minute drive from the apartment. In addition, you need to have data to unlock this key box. Thankfully, we rented a car and subscribed to international data roaming.
When we first drove into the garage, a red Mercedes Benz was parked at our designated lot. We contacted the host to troubleshoot. She answered instantly and advised us to park at the handicapped/disabled and visitors' lot, and ok-ed us to park next to our designated lot. In the interim, we bumped into neighbors who said we parked in their lot. We quickly apologized and moved our car.
Pictures of the apartment are gorgeous, however it's little different in person. For example, the couch is a leather couch, the bean bag and cushions are tired and flat, the leather bar stools have been replaced with another type of bar stool. Finally there was a long piece duct tape on the carpet that greeted us whenever we entered and exited the master bedroom.
There's adequate shower amenities such as soap and shampoo, however you've to place these large bottles of soap on the floor. Not great for someone who might have difficulty bending all the way down.
I had a great night sleep on the master bed but noticed that the beds in one of the rooms weren't as comfortable. The rooms had blackout blinds, so that kept the early rising sun out.
I had to contact the host in advance for check-out instructions because we had to leave early. So we went back to the lock box located at a separate location to deposit the keys. I was running out of data at that time so I had to make sure I had enough to complete this part of the check-out. I honestly was panicking a little because I was worried that for some wild reason, I would have issues depositing the keys and potentially missing our flight.
Overall, the apartment was spacious and clean, and has lots of potential.
