I would rate this as a barely passable Airbnb for 4 ppl.
Pros:
- Very close to all public transport and food
- Safe and quiet neighborhood and building
- Lots of late night food options
Cons:
- Lack of amenities. We checked in to a room that didn't really feel like it was ready for us. Lack of napkins or hand and body soap. Troublesome shower as well with a barely swept floor. No special soaps or coffee pods provided despite the listed pictures.
- Broken door handle. we were locked out for 30 mins until one of us jiggled our way into the room miraculously through the lock. We could have easily not be able to spend the night in an apartment we paid for.
- Communication could have been much better. Cédric took 45 mins to respond to my calls, emails and WhatsApp for a pretty urgent issue at 1045pm
- Cedric promised more soap and shampoo for us but there was no change at all to the house even after this promise which was very disappointing.
Overall, it wasn't entirely awful, great location and a warm room. It just did not meet the expectations we had from the listings and communication and promises made were less than acceptable. Good for a couple but maybe less than 4 ppl would be the sweet spot.
