Do you enjoy cold showers? How about eating your dinner sitting on the floor? Being treated condescendingly by the host? Then this apartment is for you!
The major issue during our stay was the lack of hot water - it would run out after just one shower, and would not recharge. Upon asking the host to address the issue, we were told that they had a very small hot water tank, and only paid for the electricity to refill it between 10 pm and 8 am. That is, you could take your shower at 10 pm at the earliest, and then had to wait two hours for the tank to refill. If you took your shower in the morning, you had no hot water for the rest of the day. This is not advertised in the listing, and it is completely unacceptable for an accommodation that advertises itself as sleeping up to four people (but, I guess, not letting them shower).
When we arrived, we also found that three of the four very nice dinner stools shown in the pictures were broken and unusable. We asked the host to replace them and were given varying excuses, from "I have to check with the owner" to "I have notified the local team". After three days, this changed to "it is out of our control", and "thank you for your understanding", all the while doing nothing to address the issue. Completely unacceptable behavior. We eventually bought three plastic chairs just to have a place to sit, even though they were not tall enough for the dinner table. The host refunded the cost of these chairs, but did nothing to address the primary problem. Reading earlier reviews, I see that this had been a problem with the stays immediately prior to ours, so the host knew of the problem and did not fix it. Just for context, there is an IKEA store two blocks for the apartment.
Since we were going to arrive early in the morning of our first day, we paid for an extra night in order to ensure that we would be able to check in early. Despite taking the full payment for the extra night, the host did not allow us to check in any earlier than 10 am. In the end, the flight was late and this did not matter; however, charging a full night's price and then not allowing you to enter the apartment at your desired time (which was 9:30 am) was pretty rich, and should have been a warning sign of the problems to come later.
Overall, this place is run with very deceptive practices, topped with the occasional insult to your intelligence. If you are looking for an enjoyable vacation, avoid it.
