Positives:

-Exceptionally clean
-Very comfortable bed
-English cable channels
-Pretty quiet
-Good location to LX Factory with quite a few restaurants
-Would definitely stay again
Negatives:
-Check-in needs to be improved. It's not really 'self-check-in' as the host still needs to open the door to the building for you. We made arrangements to message the host via Airbnb upon arrival as we had no phone access. However, after sending 2 messages and waiting on the street in 35-degree heat for 20 minutes (after travelling for over 5 hours) the host still had not responded. We finally gained access when a kind neighbour phoned the hosts for us. The hosts did not apologise for keeping us waiting - which was disappointing.
-Location of the apartment was incorrect when we used Google/Apple maps via Airbnb.
-Only 2 small rolls of toilet paper were provided for our 5-night stay. When I asked the hosts if they could provide more, they responded to say they 'out-source' the cleaning and supplies and 'only an initial supply is provided in the spirit of Airbnb'. This is the first Airbnb (out of over 35) where I have encountered this. It may seem like a little thing, but when you're on holiday, you don't really want to be shopping for toilet paper!
