The apartment is sparking clean and beds and bedding are very comfortable!
Layout is a little random but all available space was made to use.
There are a lot of nice touches and updates to an older style apartment to make it pleasant to stay in. Everything was sturdy and worked well - flushing mechanism in the full bathroom should be fixed, it was hard to use.
Betty, the guest manager who walked us up to the apartment and showed us around was extremely sweet.
However Philip the host who lives offsite in the UK seemed superficially polite, but in reality only interested in making as much money as possible, and less about a pleasant experience for guests
To Add in 2 guests to the stay, he insisted on surcharging 30% more then the original rate, even though neighboring airbnb listings didn't change price between 1 or 3 guests. What does it matter? The apartment comes with the same amount of beds either way and one person could use all the beds and linens if they choose just as well as 3 would.
We booked the apartment a day before our stay and even though we communicated about the extra guests about a minute after we booked the stay so no time was wasted, Philip didn't care. he insisted we update the booking and pay the surcharge or cancel on our end, and lose all our money.
We each got 1 bath towel, Ok, but when we asked Philip politely for new ones in the middle of our 5 day stay, he told us they only replace them every 6 days, saying this was standard "AirBnB" practice.
There was a mostly used up bottle of shower gel in the tub. Not enough for 3 guests for 5 days . We asked politely for more when it finished, but no answer from Philip on it, and no more provided.
The listing showed breakfast was included, but there was none, nor was any brought over by a guest manager.
When we contacted Philip, he said that the jar of cookies and mini wine bottle that they had on the mantle was counted as an "AirBnB " breakfast, and additionally, the coffee and tea and raw pasta in the cabinet.
Aside from coffee, I'm not sure who eats cookies, wine and pasta for breakfast.
Seemed like bad practice, and for bad savings - 10 euro worth of bread, cheese would have sufficed the entire 5 day stay. Same with the towel and soap. 3 euro? savings. Just looked bad.
We got one set of keys for the apt and outer door which was a bit annoying if our group wanted to split up.
At the going rate of things, I'm not sure if another set would have been provided if asked for it.
