The communication before check-in was awful.
It is managed by a 3rd party company that just doesn’t care when they reply. They were pushing me to sign a contract as I am here for 2 months but only told me after the non-refundable booking that I had to sign it. I wasn’t comfortable with that and it only got resolved 2 days before check-in when AirBNB stepped in as that’s against their policy. So it was days of back and forwards trying to solve the issue.
The check-in lady was great, told me that the fridge was broken and that they were replacing it, which they did that evening. The owner came too to oversee installation.
It’s a good location for what I needed. Modern and well equipped. The doorman is super nice too.
For some reason the apartment is always dusty, even after I cleaned it (daily mopping), it was dusty within minutes - so much so that I ended up mopping twice a day just to stop my children’s feet being filthy all day long.
When the neighbours smoke it also seems to come through one of the ventilation points so you can smell the smoke sometimes.
You can hear the 2-3am collecting of the bottles / rubbish every day as the bins are located right outside the main bedroom. Not their fault obviously but definitely something to know as it will wake you up if you’re a light sleeper.
You can hear the flushed toilets from upstairs from throughout the apartment but mostly when in the main bedroom. Again, not their fault but definitely something to know as it will wake you up.
The owner warned us that you can hear the neighbours when in the sitting room. Maybe put that in the description?
The shower door in bathroom 2 didn’t stop water going everywhere but they fixed that when I told them.
