First, the apartment is in an excellent, centralized location. You can walk to almost everything. There are many restaurants, shops, and bars extremely close by.
The apartment, itself, is well equipped. It has all the cooking utensils you would need and is spacious. The bedrooms are a nice size and there is a comfortable fold out couch. I, personally, appreciated the fans as I am a light sleeper and you can hear the residents upstairs walking around late night/early morning. It is to be expected, though, as it is an older building.
Regarding logistics, communication was pretty minimal. Aida sent me a note confirming my reservation and responded pretty quickly when I asked about train stations. We did have some confusion about check in, however. I let Aida know that we would be arriving around 12:30p via train. She told me to just call when we arrived at the train station and someone would meet us at the apartment. When I called, the person who was to meet us said that she was not near the apartment and that we would need to wait when we got there. When we got there (35 minutes after calling), we waited. 10 minutes later, I called again and was told 5 more minutes. When the person did arrive, she was rude. No apology for the wait and I was lectured about giving an hour of arrival because she was not nearby. As stated previously, Aida did not ask for a specific time. We were not offered assistance with our bags, were shown around the apartment in an irritated way...it was just disappointing. I have stayed at many Airbnbs and HomeAways and this was, by far, the worst greeting and check in. I communicated this to Aida and, even she, didn’t really seem to care. Her explanation was that the person checking us in was caught behind a car and was flustered. This is not an adequate explanation or response especially from a super host. I’m not too sure that I’d look for a property managed by Aida next time.
