Please read through the review before you book. We were very excited to stay in this place based on the pictures and description.
The positives: very easy check in. Awesome neighbourhood away from all of the tourists and walkable to many sites. The apartment is spacious and has some very cool features including high ceilings and large windows.
The negatives: the place wasn’t clean at check in. The living room rug was very very dirty. The bathroom had a very bad smell due to poor ventilation—there are no windows and the ceiling fan was ineffective. There is a mold/mildew stains on the ceiling and on the tiles in the shower. It all felt unhealthy for us and this is why we moved out. These issues in the bathroom are known by the host.
A few inconveniences—the bedside table lamp did not work. Neither wall plugs next to either side of the bed worked. You’ll need to bring your own bath soap and shampoo. Neither are provided. The host recommended a luggage storage place to stow our luggage that wasn’t even open. Not super fun to lug your bags to a place after a long international flight.
The host did offer to have a cleaner come to clean the bathroom but that wasn’t going to solve the issues in the bathroom for us. We stayed only one night of the eight we had reserved. We moved out the next day.
