The apartment has an excellent location, at rooftop with an excellent view. The personal from the host company was responsive and helpful.
However, it is evident that the host company invested as little as possible on the maintenance, cleanliness, equipment and especially the security of the apartment, while keeping earning money. The most serious problem is electricity security in this apartment. The 1st night upon our arrival, there was no electricity for the oven, stove and the air conditioner. Although the host made the electric apparatus work from the 2nd day, we were astonished to find out that the electricity system installed for those electric apparatus was like a mess, far from the norms of electricity installation that we know. It's unsafe to guests whenever there is a shortcut. In this apartment, only one of the electric apparatus can be used at one time (among stove, oven, air-conditioning, hair dryer). During our stay, the hair dryer alone was able to paralyse the circuit breaker.
Besides, some other things that could be improved for future guests:- The security access to the bed: as in the photo, the bed is just a mattress located on the mezzanine and accessed by stairs. However, there is no protection on stairs, or around the mattress. The mattress was close to the border on one side. The wooden floor could be slippery. Any fall during the dark night from the stairs or mattress could be fatal. In addition, the bedside lamps are plugged in just beside our head, at the pillow level.- The investment in bathroom installation is very limited: unpractical shower head and shower hold, no ventilation system, but only a very small window. - The apartment is very badly isolated from all the windows, or we could say no isolation at all . Therefore, it should be very cold in winter, because the air conditioners warm the apartment inefficiently. And could be very hot in summer, due to its rooftop and bad isolation.- The only sofa in the living area was very dirty. It was not pleasant for us to see this during our stay. If it costs to change or clean the sofa, the minimal effort could be: putting a clean tissue cover on it for every new guest.- There is no electric coffee maker or electric kettle. There is only an Italian coffee pot and a metal kettle to be used on the stove. It takes time to make coffee or tea. It is the first apartment we stayed on Airbnb that has no electric coffee maker or kettle.- The wifi speed is too too low. Actually the wifi is shared with others, hence unless hours like after 1:00am, or between 11:00-13:00. I could only send messages, not able to use this wifi to do any other things with smart phone or computer;
We are hoping that these details will be improved for future guests.
