As of February 5, the problems Natalie mentioned in her review are still an issue. “There was mold in the bathroom and the shower didn't seal tightly so water spilled out on the floor. Also, the hot water did not last more than 5 minutes…” For us, the main overhead shower spewed water in every direction, so I had to use the handheld shower. Furthermore, there is noticeable mold on the ceiling in the kitchenette and inside the cabinets. The kitchen areas are not up-to-date in the pictures. There the ceiling has swollen and sunk, so when you open the kitchen cabinet, it rubs the ceiling and plaster falls down into the sink or on you. We were planning to boil pasta for dinner, but could not as the stove-top is no longer functional, but hidden under a small microwave and the hood removed. This is also not up-to-date in the pictures. We found the hood on the balcony. The locked door to the adjacent room is now covered haphazardly in sound-blocking foam; it looks bad and is not up-to-date in the pictures. We’re not sure if the foam works because no one was staying there that night. However, from the bed, we were awoken several times in the night to the sound of other people quietly rolling suitcases and whispering in the stairwell. The entryway door does not block any noise whatsoever to this room. Our host was very prompt upon our arrival and responsive to our texts. There is no elevator, but he initially allowed us to use the elevator in the adjacent stairwell for our luggage; afterwards, we had to carry it down two flights upon checking out. This apartment is incredibly close to the train station and cheap. However, you are strictly paying for what you get.
