Alan’s apartment is very stylish, had all the modern amenities you need and is in the middle of the city.
There was a bit of confusion with check in, we couldn’t access some of the functionalities of the app for checkin without wifi and the email instructions only contained information to access the security door not the location of the apartment key, and that did not work the first time. We were meant to be met by an assistant on our arrival so we thought it would all be ok - unfortunately the assistant was 40mins late and by the time they arrived we had conversed with the owner and accessed the apartment ourselves. It was not an easy process after a long flight and after expressing this there was a bit of a sassy attitude from the owner.
Moving on from this our stay was pleasant, in hindsight we would have selected a place out of the cbd as the street at night is not the safest - we personally experienced pickpocketing and quite a lot of people loitering around the entry. During our stay, something was being filmed in the building, which meant the security door was left open for two days - the security person at the door seemed to have no idea who was staying/living in the building, the crew also broke the lift at one stage.
Overall, the apartment is really great - we had a pleasant stay here, but there were a few issues that dampened our experience and really prevented us from relaxing.
