This is a well proportioned apartment which is set in a great, lively location near fantastic shops, cafés and bars (although if you're in the second bedroom, be warned that it faces a busy street with people chatting/singing until the early hours!). The check in procedure was clear and straightforward, and when we contacted the management company about the problems we had, the response was quick and polite, which was appreciated.
Sadly however, we did not have a positive experience overall. The dishwasher was broken (which we did not discover until we had filled it, put it on and the error message came up). This meant that we had to hand wash all of the cups, glasses, plates etc. by hand from a full dishwasher, and for all future use. The situation was made worse when we realised that no clean sponges had been provided for washing up (lots of dirty/used ones, but no clean one), the washing up liquid had actually completely run out, and no tea towels or kitchen towels to dry up the dishes either. For the money paid, this was poor.
Whilst the overall decor of the apartment is modern and clean, it has not been well maintained (broken blind, broken arm of one of the main living room chairs, faulty wardrobe door etc.) and upon arrival, the kitchen table was dirty (there was sticky old food from the last guests) which was not wonderful, when we hoped for heightened cleaning procedures during the pandemic.
On the last day of our stay we provided with 2 tea towels and some fresh washing up liquid, as well as a phonecall from the owner. He was genuinely apologetic for our negative experience (which was appreciated), but for the short length of stay and high cost, it was not an enjoyable stay overall. Hopefully they will spend a bit more money and time ensuring the apartment is fully fit for use before the next rental, as it could have been really fantastic.
