I will say the location is perfect.. walk to everything!
Habitat respondes quickly (minus when you ask why you need to to clean the unit at checkout after you paid $90eur cleaning).
The unit looks exactly as pictured (lower ceilings).
Note this unit is in the 5th floor (requires you to go up 6 stories of stairs) or ride the lift/elevator which is 3ft wide by 3 ft deep (tiny.. If you suffer from claustrophobia it’s a non starter).
I was welcomed to a flat with a broken a/c unit that was fixed 2 days later (temporary flat was provided after loads of frustration). I was provide a contract and told I must sign in order to check in. I was asked to sign a 4/5 page contact I had never seen before for a flat that was not in “ready condition.. aka no a/c). I paid 2 months in advance and was told if I did not sign the contract for a unit without a/c working contract, I would not be able to check in. Nor could I have a refund. Nor could they accommodate me at another flat for my stay. I was cornered and in distress, I signed and had to give a deposit plus $200eur for utilities and $1300eur deposit (as mentioned in the ad).
Two days before check out, I was scheduled for a walk thru.. I was sent an email to clean the apartment, load the dishwasher and give the apartment back in the same condition received. I responded and asked if I was to do all of this would my $90eur cleaning fee be refunded?.. no response for 2 days and post check out walk they said I could leave it in whatever condition I see fit.
I scheduled a check out walk thru for 5p the Friday before I left and the employee showed up at 3p with no notice.
I checked out 11 days ago and I’m pending my utility bill so that I can get my refund deposit.
I’m so glad I took videos and pictures of the unit before leaving to show the condition we left it in.
