Contrary to other reviews, I had difficulty getting in touch with the host, receiving replies after a week and at times no reply at all for the issues in the apartment. No wifi for the first month (we stayed 4 months) and the wifi got cut during the last month due to unpaid bills. Washer broke within first two weeks even with minimal usage (once a week with moderate loads) and was never fixed. The central heating was also broken so it was really cold come the -ber months. Communication was difficult and these issues were all left unfixed at the end of the stay. As for the location, it is it a quiet neighborhood and close to public transportation and groceries. However, for the price that is charged, one would expect to have all facilities that were listed to be in good condition or at least remedied immediately.
