I stayed at this apartment between the 17 – 20 January. The apartment itself and the location are really nice. Unfortunately the experience was not as pleasant as I would have liked for the price paid.

To start off with the handover of the keys for both my arrival and departure was not well communicated. After being told that the host would be there to greet me, I received a text quite late in the day to say they were running late and asked me to collect the keys from the restaurant next door. I then had to contact the host to find out how I needed to pass the keys back to them on the day of my departure.

The apartment had a very unwelcoming feel. There were many personal belongings still left in the apartment and I did not really feel at home. I felt like trespassing. No storage room or hangers etc to put my own belongings away including in the entrance where there was nowhere to hang my coat when I entered. There was also a lack of basic amenities i.e towels, soap, tea/ coffee etc readily available and when getting in touch about these particular issues , I found the responses rather condescending.

I feel there is room for some improvement, particularly in the hospitality area. However, again the apartment itself is very nice. Clean and in a great location.
