The hostess was very gracious and the location is wonderful. However, we were not informed that there was no elevator and we had to drag our baggage up three flights of steep steps. The apartment is shabby and the toilet /bathroom has no ventilation. The second bedroom is tiny and the bed is a plank of wood on wheels, with a very thin mattress. These minuses prevented us from having a perfect holiday experience, because when you're on holiday, part of the fun is coming back in the middle of the day for a little rest before the night time activities. We could not do it, because the thought of walking up those steps and sitting in a shabby apartment was not at all appealing. Furthermore, the building itself is in a state of disrepair and smells strongly of damp.
