Nice neighborhood with great location. Restaurants, bars, and supermarkets close. It is within easy walking distance of public transport, and 30 minutes walking to the Beach.
Pros
** It was easy to check in, the host was pending to our arrival, even though we arrived close to midnight. She sent us something for dinner, since we got there hungry, and we didn’t know the place.
* *My son, visited us for one week. We asked the host about the extra cost, but she left us receive him with no extra cost.
Cons
** After using the dryer a few times, it stopped working. We told about it to the host, and she answered us asking if we were keeping clean the filter (a thing that we were always aware of, given that she left us know at our arrival) and told us that she will check the fuses. Thereafter, we were out of the apartment for 9 days, and we got back, we noticed that the dryer still wasn’t working. We asked about it again, and she communicated us that she will send the technician, letting us know that the visit will have a cost of $70 CAD. 13 days after, the technician went to check the dryer, and he fixed it. However, it worked only one more time and stopped working again. Then we told the host again, and she answered that she had to replace it, which never happened, and we were the last two months without the dryer (May 9, 2022 - July 9, 2022).
** It was unpleasant and annoying that every single package we received from Amazon was opened before being delivered to us. We wouldn’t have had a problem, if the apartment description would tell that the packages would be opened before being delivered to the owners.
** One occasion that we were out of the apartment, the fire alarm got fired for no reason. The host left us know about that, and asked us for authorization to enter to the apartment to remove it and repair it, we agreed to it, and the alarm wasn’t re-installed that same day. After a few days, we realized that the alarm had been re-installed again, but we were never notified about it, which annoyed us and made us feel distrust.
** It is important to have in mind that the apartment is freezing, since there is no way to control the temperature. There are only two portable heaters.
** The apartment was a bit dirty, we found trash like snacks bags, leftovers, and some socks inside and below the living room sofas. The extra linens were dirty.
