I would not stay at this apartment again. Air conditioning did not work properly. The unit would not cool below 23 degrees. There is only one a/c vent pushing air through the apartment so it is constantly trying to cool the upstairs and downstairs of the apartment. We let the host know of the a/c issue at 1 am our first night. We were not provided with portable fans until our third night's stay. We were miserable the first two nights and did not sleep at all because we were hot and sweating. In addition, the breaker boxes on the apartment kept tripping. The first night we were without power and a/c for a while. Luckily my husband was able to restore the electricity by flipping the breakers (both upstairs and downstairs).
It is not apparent from the listing photos, but the kitchen and second 1/2 bath are downstairs. This was not convenient. In addition, there is a main entrance located on the first floor of the apartment that we were not given access to. We had to haul all of our luggage (for a family of 4) up to the second floor using the back entry way which is a dark winding staircase. Once inside the apartment, we realized there was a first floor entrance and contacted the host to get the access code and we were told that entrance could not be used. Having access to that door (and being given the code at arrival) would have saved us a ton of trouble with the luggage. One of our large luggage bags broke while trying to get it up the winding staircase.
The breakers on the apartment would continuously trip. Every time I tried to blow dry my hair with the provided hair dryer, the power would go out. This is obviously a known issue because when I contacted the host, he sent me pictures on how to restore the breakers. This would have been good to know prior to the stay (in a household manual or something).
The air conditioning or plumbing was leaking on the stairs and there was a ton of mold on the ceiling above the stairway.
There was also a CONSTANT noise in the apartment. It sounded like a bathroom vent was on but we could not figure out where it was coming from or how to turn it off. It was very irritating.
The apartment pretty much looks the way it looks online with the exception of posting pictures to show the kitchen and half bath are downstairs. We did not have any issues getting into the apartment with the codes as previous reviews mentioned. This issue must have been resolved prior to our arrival. We like the location, had no issues with it. It's about a 20-40 min walk from the main tourist attractions.
