We had a fair stay at France and Alex’s apartment, however there were some drawbacks.
Pros:
- Location really is excellent especially for the cost.
- Quiet building
- The place was pretty clean, not sterile, but reasonable.
- The heaters provided are effective against the cold during winter.
- Hosts were pretty responsive if we had questions or issues. They were lenient with us checking out a little after 12.
- Kitchenette is great!
Cons:
- Lack of hand soap, shampoo, shower soap. We arrived at 10PM and had a early morning tour. The soap bottle had been filled to the top with water and was basically unusable. There was bit of shampoo and body wash left, only barely enough for 1 use. One other reviewer mentioned this so perhaps we should have come prepared, but it was annoying to waste our very short vacation buying toiletries.
- bed/pillows are pretty uncomfortable. The mattress is pretty hard(this is a preference thing) the pillows need to be updated they are very lumpy and flat. We did not sleep very well during our stay.
- WiFi can be a bit moody, during peak times in the day it was fairly slow. I think the router uses cellular data, maybe that’s why. I don’t know if this is standard for Europe.
