The apartment looks just as shown on the listing and is in a great location for trains, metro and walking. However, it is a basement apartment with no fresh air, an air conditioner that didn’t work properly, a moldy smell that we couldn’t get rid of and insects. There is also a metal door leading to the apartment which does not show in the photos.
Our host, whom we never met, was very responsive to us via Airbnb but due to the type of issues, could not resolve them successfully. We had difficulty accessing the keys as she was out of town when we arrived and we had no phone. We had to get someone to call her for us so we could pick them up. There was no information left on the area at all which we found unusual for a rental apartment.
Overall, we were quite disappointed by the apartment and surprised that other guests had not left more honest opinions.
