All of the previously published reviews of this unit are accurate, but North Americans should be aware of the following issues:
1) While this unit was billed as being on the first floor, what that means by European standards is that it was one floor up on the front and four or five floors up in the back. There were no smoke detectors, no fire extinguishers, no fire escapes--one way in and one way out. Clearly unacceptable by even minimal U.S. standards.
2) The exterior entrance was in a blind alley, without any lighting. Trash littered the street and we encourtered a good sized rat one night. There is construction EVERYWHERE--on the back and the front. There is dust and debris inside and outside.
3) The bathrooms are smaller than they appear on the pictures. They had very slow drains which back up in the shower when using only minimal water. The unit had a small water heater, so only two short showers could be taken at a time.
4) There was no central heat in the unit and it got quite cold at night during our January stay.
5) There was no clothes dryer, so we found it much easier to carry our dirty laundry four blocks up the street to the laundrymat.
6) The location of the internet router is terrible! There is only decent wifi in one bedroom and barely usable in the living room or other bedroom.
7) Other minor issues include a poor paint job and burnt out light bulbs.
Consider these remarks and this review in conjunction with all of the other reviews on airbnb. I read them all and found them to be generally accurate, but all is not perfect at this property.
