The Apartment was just as pictured, however my biggest turn off was the fact that, the day before arrival I was slapped with a 500 euro security deposit from the host stating that until I made this payment I could not get the instructions needed to access the apartment. This was the first time the host had mentioned this fee and had I known of this prior to booking I would have not booked with them.
Secondly everyday the apartment had hot water for about 5 minutes, so my family of 3 constantly showered in cold water. Communication was an issue because we were having issues throughout our stay getting a taxi/uber and the host was not very much of an assistance with this.
I just felt that for me coming from a country who thrives off of tourism and whose people are very hospitable, the hospitality wasn't there. The host had not even check on us one time to see how our stay was going.
Check-In was difficult because we came in after 11am and check-in was not until 3pm. However we were told that we can drop off our luggage at the apartment no earlier than 12 noon. Once we arrived at the apartment, the key was not in the place it was said to be and we expressed this to the host, which she/he replied that they will contact the housekeeper. We sat on the floor with our luggages for a good 10-15 minutes before the housekeeper came to give us the keys, the host had not even checked to see if we made it inside.
