Ira was very nice to communicate with and very welcoming into her flat. With this review, I hope to provide some beneficial ways for Ira to improve the offering and at the same time, make people aware what to expect in renting her room. Hopefully, she will take this feedback in a positive way, so the next person will review the areas of improvement positively.
- The room is located close to a tram and subway station.
- The bedroom is small and very tight for two people.
- The bedroom is in a shared apartment and directly across the hall to the other rented bedroom and next to a stair way, so their a lot of sounds, with a student hostel type ambiance.
- The bathroom is shared with the other residence and is not maintained, so if you're not first into the shower or bathroom, expect water on the floor. Also, the bathroom door has an exceptionally loud sound in the creeky / old door, hence it can wake you up if someone opens the door.
- The shower head and sink water head needs replacing and sprays water all over you or / and the floor.
- The bathroom and bedroom has a lot of little items, which feels like someones storage house, rather than an apartment for a guest.
- The bed in the bedroom is Ikea and although moderately comfortable, the side of it broke within the first 5 hours of sleep, so slept on a slant for the remaining night and the night afterwards.
- There are not enough towel hooks, for potentially 4 people, living in 2 bedrooms, so between a (seemingly) consistently wet bathroom, and 4-6 towels about, it was not easy to keep your towels dry or hung up.
- The towels are old and definitely needs to be updated.
Overall, it seemed that the owner was trying to put as little money into maintenance and basic needs for the guest, so that they could maximise profit from the nightly price.
Everyone knows that accommodation is very expensive during octoberfest, but I would highly recommend putting some money into a basic bed and the bathroom in order to make this place acceptable and at least close to a good value. We were charged only around £60 a night, but I would suggest that this would have been worth £30. I really hope that the owner takes this advice in a positive and constructive way and that the next review is more positive. I rent out my flat on Airbnb and also use Airbnb often, so appreciate objective and factual feedback both ways.
