I wanted to love this apartment.
The positive: great location, very safe, restaurants and grocery nearby. Clean modern bathroom.
The negative: the biggest negative was the bed. It was extremely hard. You could feel every spring. We actually wondered if we were just sleeping on the box springs with no mattress at all. I have a bad back and love a hard mattress, so for me to think it was too hard is saying something. VERY uncomfortable.
The silverware and some of the pots were greasy. The panini maker was greasy and had crumbs. The electric kettle was sloughing off on the inside. I tried rinsing it twice but then decided not to use it. The tea pot is chipped. One of the place mats has residue and was stained.
The sofa was a very light linen color. I realize keeping a sofa that light in color in pristine condition is difficult but also seeing many areas of the sofa spot treated was honestly kind of a turn off. Also my husband sat on it when we first arrived and it made the entire back of his pants wet. Probably from previous spot treatment? We can only hope so.
The towels in the bathroom were very worn, two had holes in them.
None of this is conducive to a listing listed as a “luxury apartment”
With a little effort this apartment could be fantastic...... a new mattress, a new clean sofa and some fresh towels and a little more observance in regards to the kitchen cleanliness.
**just a side note to travelers from the U.S., the apartment is listed on the 2nd floor with no lift. This is true. But please realize for those with mobility issues. The apartment is not up a flight of stairs (12-13 stairs) It’s 44 stairs to the apartment.
