Positives:
Marlene was a fantastic communicator, the apartment was absolutely beautiful and the location was fantastic. You have a super market at your door step and beautiful restaurants right down stairs.
The bedding was incredible comfortable and the lay out of the main room was beautiful.
Washer/Dryer was great.
Fans provided in each room which was fantastic.
Negatives:
When we arrived we realised how steep and narrow the stairs were, for a short term trip this would have been fine but we are on a one month trip so have large suitcases and did not even try and get them upstairs for fear of hurting our backs or damaging the walls. I think this needs to be noted in the add as it made things very difficult for us.
It was clear someone lives there on a day to day basis, there were clean dishes left in the dish rack which we had to put away (we in turn left our dishes in the rack), there were food scraps left in the sink, the toaster had crumbs on top and around it so it was a utility we didn’t use. The fridge had dried spills inside it and there was an off milk we had to remove. The kitchen sink cloths were heavily used, the bathroom/shower was full of someone’s existing products.
Overall it looked as though someone had done a quick clean (there was still dust and spots around especially on the bathroom floor) but in past places I have stayed it has been immaculate.
There was also grease on the floor of the main bedroom near the in room heater, my sons cuddly toys landed there while he was playing with them and are now stained.
The Wifi was incredibly slow - we ended up toggling of one of our Australian numbers the whole time which will lead to a massive data roaming bill. Whilst we’re on holidays both my mum and I still need to be contactable for work.
There wasn’t a lot of comfortable sitting space so you could all sit together as a family.
