The main point I should emphasize overall is that the apartment is in a good location, is safe, and spacious. We never actually spoke with Victoria, but she was accessible by email. Check in was smooth. I was able to reach Ruslan (Victoria’s housekeeper) upon arrival easily and he was there to let us in.

I wouldn’t say this is the most charming AirBnB we have ever stayed in. The apartment was nice but there was not a lot of natural light. The walls are mostly bare, with the exception of some “interesting” art on the ceiling of the bedroom and a random head popping out of the wall in the kitchen. It does not make for a warm/welcoming vibe.

The bathtub contains a shower hose with no hook to hang it and does not reach high enough to rinse your hair without having to bend over but there was plenty of hot water. I would recommend they upgrade their towels. The ones we were provided were paper thin and felt like sandpaper.

Lastly, there is a bar on the first floor. If you are staying over the weekend, expect to hear plenty of noise until 3-4am. We did.

In the end I can only say that it was "ok." We don't regret staying there but I can’t say that I would choose to stay there again.
