The apartment is in a great location, less than 10 minutes from a train/metro station. Walkable distance from the centre of the city where there are shops, cafes, restaurants. There is a supermarket within 5 minutes from the apartment and eateries, souvenir and craft shops.
The apartment itself did not quite live up to expectation. It is worn in parts. There are minor marks and scuffs on a couple of walls and what appears to be plastering on a door and a wall. The couch offers itself as a second bed, however it is worn and flaking its coating and it would not lend itself well as another bed. The bathroom door was faulty, and was close to breaking when moved.
We found ants in the kitchen and bathroom and felt uncomfortable on our first night. We had to throw out food items as a result. However, we contacted the host and the issue was resolved by the host by spraying the ants with a anti-bug spray. The ants went away then as it appeared it was not an infestation.
The kitchen itself is quite basic in relation to utensils provided.
Overall, the apartment suffices as a base but would not be overly comfortable if you intended to spend long durations in it.
