I'm not sure where to start with this one...The neighborhood was perfect, but the apartment needs work. First of all, when you enter the building you are greeted by garbage being stored at the bottom of the stairs. There is also crap being stored outside of the front door of the unit. My friend and I couldn’t stand on the landing at the same time, since there was so much crap. Finally you enter the unit and it is dark, even with every single light on.
The place wasn’t the cleanest. We literally had to wipe the kitchen counter down. The dish soap was also watered down. How cheap can you be??? Buy more dish soap.
According to the description, the apartment has 2.5 bathrooms. Not sure who did the count, but a shower in one room, a bathtub and sink in another, then a toilet and a non-working sink in another, does not equal 2.5 bathrooms. Typically a bathroom consists of a toilet, sink, bathtub or shower in one room. Good luck finding that in this apartment.
The apartment also had exposed outlets and no light in the room with the toilet. Literally they had a non-working flashlight. I had to move a lamp from the living room to the bathroom. BTW, there is no outlet in the bathroom, so I had to plug it in the hallway and pray to God that we didn’t trip over it.
Lastly, we were freezing. Apparently even though they had radiators that you can turn on and off, it was all for show, since it was all controlled by the building.
After messaging the host with our list of issues, we were told that the building experienced a plumbing issue which led to the outlets being exposed and no light in the bathroom. We were told they would bring us a heater and a light for the bathroom, which they did, but let’s just say, we didn’t remove the lamp from the bathroom since the lights were useless.
Oh, I almost forgot the bed in the small bedroom. It’s not a real bed. It’s a sofa folded down in a bed, with a crease that prevented me from getting a good night sleep.
I guess we got what we paid for and this may work for some people, but not for me. This place needs major work. Stay at your own risk.
