The apartment itself is great and as described, though a little more wear and tear on the interior than the photos suggest. Location was perfect, close to everything and the area felt safe. There were communications issues from the beginning even before I booked and unfortunately that proved to be an issue later on as well.
I messaged the host the several nights before and confirmed the check in time. I received aesaage from the host asking about our arrival time the day of and I responded but never received a response back. When we arrived at the apartment there was nobody there so I had to call and the host sounded surprised that I was there already.
Then once inside, the apartment was still being cleaned. We were told to go get a drink and come back in an hour. We came back an hour and a half later and it was still being cleaned. In their defense, I think the previous guests left the apartment an absolute wreck. It wasn't ideal though after traveling for 14 plus hours to not immediately be able able to settle in and freshen up.
In addition, the apartment definitely did not feel clean - particularly the floors and the bathrooms.
