This was not a good experience. We stayed here in a "perfect 2 bedroom APT in CITY CENTER" for 3 nights, and the place itself probably would have been fine, had we been prepared for what it actually looked like, and if had been ready for us when we arrived. In reality, this place is VERY hard to enter. There is a VERY steep staircase to get down to the BASEMENT apartment, and I would never bring small children or elderly people here.

When we arrived it was after 5PM, yet the cleaners had not come and the place was filthy. Paul;ine did not greet us - instead she sent a young man who knew very little about the city, or anything having to do with the apartment. He clearly felt terrible about the state of the apartment, but couldn't do anything about it. It does not show well, when it is this dirty! There was a broken closet door just leaning up against a wall in one bedroom.

They asked us to lock all windows and doors when we left, but when i tried to bolt the back door, the lock just popped off. It seemed like the previous guests had caused some damage, but no one had bothered to check this out before we arrived.

When they say there is no kitchen, they mean it. there is a tiny fridge and a nespresso maker, but no pods for you to use, and no sink to rinse cups.

Pauline's profile says she rents out her home when she is away, yet she seems to have multiple listings. I believe this is her business - managing apartments. Therefore she has reviews for many differnt apartments posted in the same place - make sure you are actually reading a review for the apartment you want to rent. This was my first time using Airbnb though i have used VRBO/Homeaway many times. I was very disappointed with this experience. I find Airbnb to be very misleading, and much harder to use.

The neighborhood was delightful, and the place eventually worked out for us. It is way over priced - after fees I paid nearly $1000 for 3 days. I do not recommend it.
