+ the location is great, and we had the building to ourselves so it was quiet. The lift goes directly inside the penthouse, and the roof terrace is great. The checkin and communication was smooth. This listing would be great if it still looked like it does on the pictures, when it was freshly renovated.
- the flat has a terrible damp problem, the walls are literally crumbling, with the crumbled pieces just left there on the floor. The bathroom is full of black mould. The bedsheets feel damp and clammy when you get into bed. The rest of the apartment has a run-down feel to it, it’s probably been through a lot of not-careful renters. It needs maintenance and a good clean. The kitchen cabinets are broken, there are cigarette holes and makeup stains on the curtains. It feels like corners are cut wherever possible, bare minimum of cutlery in the kitchen, pans in a terrible state, no shampoo etc… too bad, this property could be great but you can tell it’s being run by an impersonal business and not the owner of the place.
