Before our trip, Ana Maria was very helpful with s few questions we had. The day we arrived Ana Maria's friend Violeta & Her husband Jonas met us at the flat. Jonas was very helpful. He familiarized us with the metro system, which we used as our main transportation while we were there.

If a picture says a thousand words, in this case, it says a thousand words on the apartment's behalf and were overstated. The apartment was outdated. It looked and felt nothing like the picture even though it has the same furnishing.

We were advised to use the bedroom further away from the street, because it's quieter. However, the room was so over stuffed with closet and other furnishings it doesn't leave much room to move around in. On one corner of the bed, there was only about half foot between the bed and the closet. On our first night there, we both got bruises from hitting the sharp corner of the bed numerous times trying to get over to the other side of the room. My fiance was jokingly saying we need to wear knee pads or shin guards to not hurt ourselves when we were in that room.

The bathtub has a crack, when you step on it, you were afraid of it's going to go all the way through the floor. The hot water heater leaks and there is a cup to catch the drip.

Overall the apartment was over priced for the quality.
