Jennifer the host is kind and helpful and very easy to get in contact with she replied to all of our messages promptly. Jennifer was away when we were staying so she organised for her friend to be at the apartment when we arrived with the key to let us in. This all went smoothly. The house was as described.
We were disappointed there was only 1 towel when there were 2 of us guests booked to stay. We had been travelling for a long time and just wanted to each have a shower and go to sleep but we had to go out and find a shop that sold towels. We managed to buy one and after letting Jennifer know she apologised and reimbursed us, no issues, for the towel, which was good.
The bed is very hard! So if you aren't able to cope with that I wouldn't recommend this place for you. There was only one pillow for each of us - we would've appreciated more pillows accessible (most places usually offer an extra couple of pillows). There was a supermarket literally outside the apartment building which was super handy. Also a great pizza place (across the road to the right, green sign that says Pizza, Crepes and Sandwiches I think) they do nice pizza's and are open late. The Metro line 7 which we used a lot is only a 3 minute walk away which was also handy. Overall the cleanliness was okay-good. The bed was clean and the kitchen/living area also. The toilet was clean and the shower was okay. The kitchen utensils e.g. Fork, spoons, cups were not to our standard of cleanliness so we didn't feel comfortable using them. For others they may have been okay. We wouldn't stay here again mainly as the bed isn't suited to us but we would recommend this place to those who aren't fussy and who are on a budget. It had all the essentials and ticked most boxes. Bonus is that Jennifer is a good host even though we didn't get to meet her in person.
