It’s as described. However, everything is tight, it’s as if a nice apartment had been cut in two…so the bedroom became two small bedrooms, the bathroom became a tiny bathroom and a tiny kitchen, etc.
While they state it on their listing, the choice to collect taxes in cash on top of the price was a surprise to us given the relatively high cost to begin with. If I had read more carefully, I wouldn’t have been surprised.
However, when it turned out we were one fewer the owner replied that it didn’t matter, it didn’t affect the price; however, the price went up considerably when we were booking when I added in the extra person, so the owners seem to not understand how their pricing works.
The power went out for two hours one morning, making everything…even the toilet and the hot water…not work. While this was not the owners fault, it wasted precious daylight and I was surprised that the owner didn’t offer a refund at that point. Sure, it wasn’t their fault, but the price is high and it certainly wasn’t my fault either!
The owners were fast to respond to problems. Some of the problems (like the power going out, an noisy neighbors) were beyond their control. Others, though, might have been avoided rather than solved (there were no clothespins, and not enough toilet paper for the length of our stay; also, only two non-absorbent dish towels in a tiny tiny kitchen with nowhere to dry dishes).
It’s in a great location, and the internet is FAST. Matches the pictures. I think with more experience, this will become a really nice place to stay, but for us, I wish I had picked the cheaper one in the same area.
