3 stars
On the plus side, this unit, although not in the city center itself, was in close walking distance to the center of town, to the naschmarket, a grocery store and to the subway station. There were a couple of items that required attention and the owners responded quickly and took care of them promptly. They also had a complimentary bottle of wine waiting which was a nice touch.
However, one of the main reasons that we chose this apartment was the fact that the description stated that there was a washer and dryer. After traveling for over a week, this was a feature that was mandatory. The dryer turned out to be a drying rack, not the clothes dryer we were expecting.
So now, we had a drying rack with wet clothes set up in the bedroom. In addition to that, the toilet was in a separate room by itself which seemed weird and made it necessary to then go into another room to wash your hands.
After all the five star reviews, this just didn’t fit our idea of what we expected.
The block where it is located, although in walking distance of many places, is rather dreary and noisy.
The shower had no accommodation or shelf for holding your soap or shampoo so you were forced to hold everything you needed or put it on the floor.
Although they never said there was a television, it would have been nice to have one.
I would say it was furnished in a pretty economical fashion and we were definitely anticipating a few more amenities. Sorry we cannot agree to more than three stars.
