This is a well maintained, light filled apartment on the fourth floor, with views out to the water from the living room. The living room has a comfortable couch, chair and dining table with 4 chairs. There is one good sized bedroom with a window and adequate wardrobe space, and one smaller room (double bed) off the living room which has a tiny hanging space. Leaving the door open to the living room affords natural light, otherwise closing the door allows darkness. The bathroom has a shower (with good water pressure and hot water), toilet and bidet. The kitchen has fridge, stove, dishwasher, coffee pod machine, microwave, some cooking utensils. A long corridor connects the living room to the main bedroom, bathroom and kitchen. The neighbourhood is a popular area, with lots of bars and restaurants, and not far from transport.
The things to consider if you book this place are:
- the 60 steep steps to get up to the apartment;
- there is no heating (despite it getting to 5 degrees celcius) and only one small fan for warmer weather;
- the bed sheets are not fitted and tend to bunch up;
- there are no welcome amenities like tea, coffee, milk, dishwasher machine detergent etc, but there was a welcome bottle of wine;
- no TV but there is wifi and a blue tooth stereo speaker.
The host was very responsive to our request to fix some lights and organised for the concierge service to attend to it. Unfortunately the washing machine/dryer wasn't working when we stayed.
