I'll start with what is great about this Airbnb: it has the most spectacular views and is in an incredibly central location, making it a great base for exploring the beautiful city. It's spacious and tastefully furnished.
We were, however, overall disappointed with our experience in this Airbnb. There are a few things that need fixing and some things about the apartment that should be clearer in the listing description:
-The third bedroom is up some stairs in the kitchen/living room. It does not have a door and the velux window above the bed does not have a blind - we would strongly recommend the owner install a blind above the bed.
- The main room has two fixed air conditioning units, one of which was not working whilst we were there so it was not effective against the heat and couldn't bring the temperature down below 28 degrees inside on some days. The air conditioning in the two bedrooms with doors is provided by mobile air conditioning units which only work if you keep the window open (which meant it didn't work during the day because more hot air came in than could be cooled).
- We were only given one set of keys which was logistically very difficult as we were a group of six.
We asked for Nelson's help with these problems on arrival and he did fix a broken light and try to fix the air conditioning unit but it was not successful. Unfortunately he ignored all the other questions.
Overall, it felt like the apartment could do with some love and care. It could be a wonderful place to stay but right now, based on our experience it is not worth the price.
