overall this airbnb met our needs - it was clean, had basic amenities, was in a great location. previous reviews noted the level of volume outside - the construction was annoying but wasn't through the night and was easy enough to ignore if we were around during the day. folks outside at night were boisterous at times, but honestly you're in such a central/touristy location so you should expect some of that? I'm sure this would be especially true in the summer (we stayed here end of september). that all said - the photos are obviously a little staged (perfect lighting, new furniture, etc). this place needs a new paint job and has all the scuffs of the many other folks who've stayed here before. the soap dispensers were broken but no matter - there wasn't even soap to use. the espresso machine was also broken. the front door didn't securely lock and could just be pushed open. this is a rental managed by a company and while communication through the app was easy, i prefer airbnbs managed by a human who put time and energy into their space so guests can love it just as much as they do.
