We booked this apartmant for 4 nights . Julien, the host wrote back right away and the message contained lots of useful information. Check in was easy. We just needed to put the code in to the pad on the door.
The apartment is very spacious.
The living room area looks very nice but it doesn't have enough seating for the number of people who can stay there. There is a leather couch for 2 people and a small armchair. The apartment is naturally dark because it is in an old building so the lighting should be improved all through the flat. It was very dark and some lights were not working or were missing . The main bathroom was so dark even with the light on that I could hardly see my face in the mirror. Don't dream about putting your makeup on in there. The kitchen had all the necessary equipment that you might need. But again, the lighting was very dim.
The main bedroom is huge and looks nice. The beds were all very comfortable. There was a strange smell filling the bedroom and the bathroom that was coming from the small courtyard in the middle of the building.
You can hear the neighbors talking, walking and flushing their toilets.
There was only one extension cord in the living room. Not nearly enough for all the lights and phones to be charged.
We couldn't lock the main door from outside. We just closed it but if it was pushed just a bit it opened. So anybody from outside could have gone in. We could lock it with a key from the inside.
The apartment needs a lot of maintenance. There were broken tiles in the bathroom. The wall was chipping away. You just have the overall feeling that things should be improved all over the apartment. It was a bit of a disappointment for us. For this price I expected a lot more.
Unfortunately my phone broke shortly after we arrived and I couldn't contact the owners to discuss the issues about the apartment with them. I'm sure some of them could have been fixed.
