After our first few days, we ran out of toilet paper, and there was no extra supply. After a few more days, we ran out of hand soap, and there was no extra supply. The apartment had not been sufficiently prepared for our stay of two weeks.
In addition, the bed was incredibly uncomfortable, and the pillows provided were all flat. There were also brown stains on the sheets.
The location was excellent, but our stay was often interrupted by aching and tiredness from fitful sleep on a bad mattress.
