The best part about Sandra's place;
There is a supermarket right in front of the apartment (It opens even on weekends till 9pm, if I remember correctly)
Wifi is excellent, I never had any trouble with it. Speed is really good for video calls.
Metro is in proximity, about 5-7 minutes walking distance from her place
Sandra was almost available to answer any questions I might have, she took time to explain how to reach "laverie" public laundry machines. She also guided me on best places to buy fruits and vegetables.
She allowed me to check in and check out as per my convenience.
Bad things about her place;
It's not so quite place, you may hear noise from bikes in the night. I had to leave the window open as it was summers but had disturbed sleep because of the noise.
Room was cleaned apparently, but not vacuumed. There was dust on the bed linen due to which I suffered from cough for a few days.
I was shocked to see the toilet when I checked in. It's a shared one with her neighbor (well Sandra told me it's a shared one before checking in but I didn't expect it to be unclean). I spent half an hour scrubbing the toilet but it did not get any better as it's a old one and definitely needs to be replaced. Her neighbour uses the toilet for his cat and he left his cat's poop without flushing, I almost vomited and got annoyed for not maintaining it clean and hygienic.
I stayed for 4 weeks, nearly 4 days there was no hot water in the bathroom and in the kitchen. It's not Sandra's fault because it was a common problem in the entire apartment. There was some plumbing work going on in the building because of which hot water supply was not there.
I was told that mattress is not comfortable but the fact is that even the cot is broken. I weigh 64 kilos and I was afraid each night that it may break. Bed linen was not clean either, lot of dust on it. Again, it's not Sandra's fault because the owner was responsible for replacing the cot it seems.
