The host was communicative and the apartment is large. There was good water pressure and plenty of very hot water. However, the apartment was very dirty and not well-maintained in general. The photos show an organized space with a pleasant, clean patio with plants and a nice artist studio. What we experienced was quite different - the artist studio is completely unusable (it is being used for personal storage). The patio was dirty and ended up flooding into the house when it rained as drainage pipes had not been cleaned. Most of the plants were dead in their containers and the shade umbrellas that could've made the patio more useable were broken. Pillows and couch covers were stained, we found multiple dirty dishes in cabinets, dirty utensils in dirty drawers, etc. The fridge was heavily frosted over and dirty. The bed in the room with the air conditioning was so uncomfortably lumpy that we chose to sleep in the room without a/c so we suffered at night from the heat. The elevator was not working and the lobby area smelled of sewage during most of our stay. Overall this was a very unpleasant stay for us, so much so that we left after 2 weeks even though we paid for a month. It is quite a pity as it really could be a nice space if deep cleaned and better maintained.
