Negatives
-we arrived hoping to do some laundry after 10 days of travelling, as this apartment was advertised as having a washing machine. After locating the washing machine, we found there was no washing powder and went out to get some. It was then very disappointing to return and find the washing machine broken. We contacted Matt who replied promptly to let us know that it had been broken by the last user but could not be fixed until our last day. He suggested we go to the nearby launderette, but this was on our own expense.
- No toilet paper available - again not a great expense and therefore we did not inform Matt about this but when paying £80 a night it doesn’t seem unreasonable to not have to buy our own toilet paper
- the apartment was just generally in need of some care - light bulbs in some places needed replacing; the terrace was covered in dust and stones from the building site that towers over it at the back and was not useable without a good clean.
