We stayed in Harry’s apartment for six nights. I was disappointed with my stay, having expected more based on both the pictures of the apartment in the listing and on previous reviews.
While the apartment has some nice finishes and is well situated relative to the metro and grocery shops, there were a few issues that made our stay less enjoyable.
For example, greater transparency around the state of the bathroom would have been appreciated. It is old, and out of step with the rest of the apartment and in need of repair. Most concerning was the mould and grime in and around the shower. The pictures of the bathroom on this listing are not an accurate representation of what the bathroom actually looks like.
Further, I would repeat some comments left in past reviews below.
- The beds are small, I am slightly under 6 ft and the bed was not long enough for me.
- The kitchen is poorly equipped - no toaster, no tea towels, no paper towels, and only one frypan.
- We also were not able to get the dishwasher to work. While I can’t be certain that it is broken, the several used / dissolved dishwasher tablets that were left sitting at the bottom of it when we arrived were telling. I hope this issue is resolved for future guests.
- The WiFi username and password on the listing (which were confirmed to us by Harry before arrival) are incorrect. I note previous reviews have pointed out that the router near the TV displays the WiFi settings correctly.
- The walls are thin, expect to hear the neighbours conversations, and the pianist upstairs.
