Not a really good place to stay.
We were a group of 5 people who didn’t enjoy much the accommodation there. Specifically,
the host mentions in the apartment’s description that the apartment “can comfortably accommodate up to 6 people”. However, the boiler that the apartment is equipped with can accommodate a shower for only 1 person at a time. Since boiler’s capacity is super low, we had to arrange our showers with shifts. Yes, you read that right. One person in the morning, the other one in the late evening, the next one the next day, and so on. So, yes, it’s not a lie that the apartment can accommodate 6 people; but obviously cannot accommodate them with quality. And we are not talking about some fancy quality, but rather a basic necessity. Literally, this is a must and urgently needs to be fixed.
Not all sheets and pillowscases were clean. We found that many pillowcases had black spots on them. On the sheets and on the covering we spotted quite a few random hairs.
The ceiling was not 1.65cm; it was almost 1.50cm.
The separate shower area was smelling badly. Since there are no windows to air it inside, a constant smell from the drainage was relentlessly coming. It could be a problem for the people who decide to sleep in the sofa bed.
Also, it was not straightforward on how to turn on the lights in the living room. In the pictures, the lights seem on, however, the knob (if any) is still a mystery on where is located.
Lastly, the floor was not hovered appropriately. Dust, hairs, and dirtiness from day one. And some dirty points on the walls here and there.
Of course, we have evidence for all the visible points made above for 2 reasons; a) if anyone claims the opposite and b) if any potential visitor wants to verify. The pictures of course clearly state the date that were taken which is the day 1 of our trip, which also could be cross-checked by our booking details. Unfortunately, for the non-visible parts (boiler, smell) you need to feel it to understand it.
The confirmation process through the MIT HOUSE application was cumbersome; it didn’t accept most of our documents, so we had to send them by email.
The location was good.
Overall, we didn’t enjoy our stay in the apartment. We really look forward for some major improvements in the apartment. We think it can be done and the host seemed to have at least the willingness to help, so we expect in the future these issues to be resolved.
