I'm so sorry to say this, but the entire process was a miserable affair. First, this apartment is an "instant book", which is great. EXCEPT they charged extra for linens and extra for internet, late arrival (more on that later) and early departure. After all of the extra charges, the place was more expensive than several others that we looked at. They also made us sign a pretty onerous contract that required the names, birth dates and nationalities of all of our friends.

Now to the actual stay:
- Our host threatened to fine us 30 euros if we were late for our check-in time. We showed up on time but our host wound up being late. What a ridiculous notion - fine guests for being late and nickel-and-dime them to death, but the host is free to show up as late as she wants. The double-standard was annoying.
- The apartment was clearly made for drunken destruction. It felt very hollow and plastic.
- The apartment was not as advertised. It was dark and had no character. The beds were single beds strung together with a sheet. All told, incredibly misleading and very sparse.
- The apartment building itself is dirty and poorly maintained. Has a dungeon aesthetic.
- Pictures of the Manhattan skyline on the wall. Added to the "generic I'm just doing this for the money" feel to the apartment.

Overall, we used this as a place to rest our head at night, but the host was not good and the apartment was in poor condition. Would not stay here again.
