The flat itself is lovely! In fact so lovely that during our first week of an almost 3 month stay we decided to extended our stay by 3 days. We checked in on a Friday while construction wasn’t happening in our building, however once Monday came around we began to regret extending our stay. We stayed while construction was going on in the building, right above us for a large part of our stay. It was so bad (ie taking up and replacing floors, constant drilling the kind of drilling that feels like it’s penetrating your brain. It was so bad that the owners gave us back 200€ because of the inconvenience. We both worked from home and this really put a huge damper on stay.
Also, we knew that the apartment would be cleaned which was great because the apartment was going to be cleaned and we didn’t have to do it and during Covid we definitely wanted to come home to a clean apartment. What we didn’t know was that the owners would show up every two weeks during the cleaning to open the door for the cleaning crew and inspect the quality of the cleaning when they finished. It just felt weird because we felt like the home wasn’t really ours. Again we stayed for close to 3 months and wanted to feel like we were at home, this apartment didn’t quite rise to the occasion.
Again the home was lovely and the area was to die for, but the construction and the frequent visits made this a less enjoyable stay. I will say this Ana and Antonio were responsive re: the construction noise, and even purchased a mattress toppers for one of the beds that wasn’t comfortable. Antonio also came when the circuit breaker needed to be reset. I wish I could give 5 stars but the construction was pretty unbearable.
