Andrei sent us a very detailed description of where to find the apartment and how to get in.
We were able to get in and settle straight away without actually meeting him. We've had experience of feeling a bit like an inconvenience and being rushed about but Andrei leaving the key in a safe spot so we were able to come in as we please was really helpful.
The apartment was clean and tidy and looked exactly like it's pictures. The apartment is small but completely ideal for a couple of nights away and the location is brilliant. Really close to local high streets a minutes walk from metro stops.
When we bumped into Andrei he was really pleasant and nice and told us to ring if we needed anything.
The only thing we had trouble with was the plugs. Being British we had to use converters which didn't fit in very well and felt a bit dodgy. We still managed to use everything we wanted though so would not put us off coming back.
Thank you Andrei!
