The apartment was nicely located and relatively easy to get to by metro. Overall, we had a nice stay that could have been made better if the apartment had been cleaner and had basic amenities provided.
What we expected/Pros:
- Simple apartment with your basic necessities (bed, table & chairs, microwave, sink, stove, refrigerator, & small shower) and perfect for having a place to sleep and then spend most of your time out seeing the sites.
- The terrace was nice with the potted plants and furniture, though the photos on Airbnb are not accurate as of October 2017 because the furniture is the simple plastic outdoor furniture, not what is shown on here.
- Located in a more residential area with lots of shops and restaurants nearby. It did not feel nearly as touristy as the main parts of the city.
- Paul was very easy to communicate with using WhatsApp and met us outside the apartment to check in.
- WiFi worked well and was easy to connect to.
What disappointed us/Cons:
- The bathroom had dark mold along the tiles near the shower and red mildew along both tiles and the bottom of the shower curtain.
- The towels smell musty and did not seem clean as there was hair on them.
- When we asked where additional toilet paper would be in the apartment we were directed to buy our own. There was one small roll of very cheap toilet paper there that we needed to replace on the later part of the 2nd day. I expected this basic amenity to be provided.
