Betty and Christof were lovely and the place is in great location but I want to be clear that this is in the back of a cafe. You’ll be sharing your kitchen with the cafe staff. You can start hearing them move around, put away dishes or dare-I-say cough (just to give you an idea of how close you’ll be) at around 10:30-11AM.
The entrance to your sleeping area is via the kitchen of the cafe, not a separate entrance at all and is separated by a door that barely closes and or closes but you can still see the inside which is fine for the most part.
To get to the 2nd bed, you have to climb up a set of tiny stairs that felt a bit unstable at time. Wouldn’t recommend for anyone with mobility issues.
The thing that I find most uncomfortable is the bath tub being basically in the 2nd bedroom upstairs. You just don’t see the person taking a shower because of a piece of fabric that serves as a divider but you can hear absolutely everything. So get ready for a very intimate time if you’re traveling with friends. The shower head also doesn’t work properly so you have to hold it with one hand and shower with the other.
The flat is definitely funky but because of the lack of light, it’s hard to tell how clean it is so I won’t comment on that.
We were only given one set of keys which means that if anyone stays home while the rest go out, that person is stuck inside forever. You can’t open the doors from the inside at all. Beware of the 30 euros check in fee.
If you’re looking for a comfortable place with lots of lights, this might not be for you. That said, I loved the neighbourhood, there is a Sharwama joint a 4-5 minute walk on the mainstreet to your left that sells delicious and cheap foods.
