Greeted by Gigi who contacted us beforehand to arrange check in, initial looks was the place was stunning and exactly what we wanted. Provided us with a few welcome snacks and water.
However the full stay wasn't all great. Never had I had to contact the host so much during an Airbnb stay. I understand this is an Airbnb and won't be perfect but I don't expect a power cut and being unable to unlock the door. I didn't find communication that helpful or clear when I was having problems.
Dishwasher door wouldn't shut so couldn't use it, Gigi said he could come by in the evening to look at but we planned to be out. We had planned to cook a lot so were disappointed by this. Gigi informed us they had called for someone to look at it when we were checking out, so check before booking if this is important for you.
We were unable to unlock the front door on our first night so spent 10mins being locked out and panicking. Then eventually we figured out the door isn't properly aligned to the door pane so we had to pull the door towards us to align it to the keyhole then we could unlock the door. It would have been helpful to know this when checking in.
Power went out for about 5mins on our 2nd night, this was fixed by the neighbour and then we got told by the neighbour, not to not use too many electrical appliances at once as we over did it. Which I am skeptical we did, as we had the oven, kettle and washing machine going. Note the toilet is electric so you can't use the toilet. But then again the WiFi, fridge and light etc probably used it.
I didn't find communication with the host good, maybe they tried to help but to me it didn't feel this way, I felt they got annoyed that I had many issues, this could be poor communication between us.
Note: Floor seemed to be dusty/dirty so bring slippers or flip flops to wear around the flat.
Postives, bed is comfortable and fan up in the loft keeps you cool, Internet works well kitchen is well equipped to prepare meals, good location which is close to the metro. There is a working washing machine so we were able to do some laundry while we were there.
