I'm going to start with the things I found inappropriate in order to help the host provide a better experience for future guests.
- the apartment was not clean. There were dust bunnies and white fluff all over the floor.
- there were spiders in the bathroom building a nest between the toilet paper and wall.
- check in and check out were at extremely unreasonable and not flexible hours. Check in was at 3pm minimum and check out at 10am (we consulted the host to see if we could leave our luggage in the hallway until 1pm and the answer was a firm "no").
- the bathtub was very dirty (we found long dark hair in it) and hadn't been cleaned, I had to buy products and scrub it myself.
- the only pan this kitchen had was in horrible conditions. The oven tray equally disgusting and very dirty. The kitchen had a few pots where you could only make soup.
Now with the things that were okay:
- communication with the owner (although not satisfactory) was prompt
- the place is a 35 minute walk from the center & quiet.
- there was coffee & a coffee machine available.
- although old and torn, I appreciated the fact that our bed had 2 separate blankets & the pillows were comfy.
