So all in all a good stay but with a few surprises.
So when you first arrive one realizes that there is no parking on the premises although the Airbnb listing stated that there is parking on the premises. One has to park their car on the street. We had a rental car and parked on the street all day and so far no damage. So beware the listing says on the premises but it’s not. Next when you realize that the parking is on the street there are restrictions on when you can park on the streets. And the instructions say that you cannot park from Monday to Thursday between 7 am and 9am
But that is not true. It is for the garbage trucks to pass by but only on Monday and Thursday at 7-8am
So that is misleading.
Next the stairs to
Get
To
The apartment are very scary and high. They’re the twisted stairs. If you’re travelling with a baby on your back it’s very
Scary bit you get used to it and we managed to walk it with our young preschooler. But still one has to watch every step. Next when you enter you get a smoke smell but it’s only the carpet at the entrance which needs to be changed as it’s very filthy or needs to be washed. This smell when you enter throws you off. Next there is no central air conditioning in the unit. They have a portable unit which is only in one room. And the ac smells and the filter needs to be changed. And the rest of the unit takes some time to cool but luckily we had cool days when we visited in July Canadá week. Overall furniture and decor is nice but when we went
To take out the bedsheets and blankets to put on the sofa bed they smelled
Of sweat and had been used without being washed. Luckily we had access to a washer and dryer and that solved the problem. The kitchen is nice with sink and all the amenities. Everything is clean except the mop to clean the floors could have been changed as it was putting the dirt back on the floor so if you walk bare feet your feet become black. The back door doesn’t have a glass Window só you have to make sure the shutter is closed.
Overall a nice place with good kitchen amenities good sleeping beds and sofa but bathroom is narrow and small. But the rest of the unit is spacious which is nice. And also they provide you with grey towels which could have been white so that
You know it’s clean the grey towels had stains on them. So I would bring your own towel. The washing machine worked good except the dispenser came off when you put the detergent in but worked fine and the dryer didn’t close properly but if you put the ladder close to the cover then the dryer works. So just these tips and for the price it makes up for it because everywhere else it was expensive. I just wish that Arnaud was honest to say that there was no parking on premises. But everything worked
Out and our car didn’t get robbed sitting on the street. Good points is that it’s close to a bus stop there’s also a ironing board high chair for baby and some extra folding chairs so good for a big get together of people and cheap for the spacious unit.
