I'm rating this place with two stars instead of one simply because our host was willing to respond and change a few minor issues, such as the dirty soup pot. But unfortunately the listing is not factual. There is a new balcony indeed but one can hardly use it since there is a large scale refurbishment going on literally centimeters away, that is both noisy and dusty. In addition smokers are allowed to smoke on the balcony which means that their smoke is flooding our balcony and open windows when we tried to air the flat. In the evening some guests are noisy but the host reminded them not to be so. The kitchen is old, and in bad state and the stove is very inefficient. The apartment and the whole building would be ok if these issues were not there. With the refurbishment next door lasting for the foreseeable future this cannot be a quiet apartment. The location of the building is adequate, yet the side which looks towards the main road is anything but quiet. All in all we were disappointed with the place and just how unreliable the description of the apartment is. I hope that Airbnb will correct these issues. I have made several pictures of the issues we faced and the noise etc we suffered from.
