The check in and communication were both very pleasurable experiences for my friends and I.
The apartment itself is situated nicely and is spacious. Taking into consideration the age of the apartment, we understand that issues such as the very low powered shower and smudgy windows were out of your hands. We appreciated the folded towels and amenities provided. However, the state of the apartment was very dire from a hygiene standpoint.
We initially planned to use the kitchen for our daily breakfast and upon seeing the kitchen, we decided against using any facility in the apartment aside from the bathroom and our bedrooms.
As soon as we entered the flat, the kitchen floor was smothered with dead insects. There seemed to be a rolled up carpet of some sort used to block a hole in the wall which was surrounded with both dead and alive medium-sized flying insects. We completely blocked the kitchen and had all of our breakfasts outside in restaurants.
The bedrooms seemed cleaned at first sight, but underneath the bed was accumulated in dust and hair which suggested that no vacuuming was done prior to our arrival and for what seems like a long period.
The WiFi log in details provided did not work. We tried to contact the host about it and received no response.
Apart from the above, the agent who assisted us with the check-in was extremely helpful and welcoming. There was extra toilet paper, amenities, and complimentary wine which we appreciated. This last bit of positivity is what inclined isn’t to leave an extra star which makes it a 3/5 star stay for us.
