1) No notification of major construction happening in front of building since January and expected to continue through December. So no one else is blindsided, we spoke to the construction workers who stated they work from 7:30 am - 2:00 pm then resume at 3:00 pm - until 6:30 pm. The worst is the portable toilet for the construction workers positioned within arms reach of the front entry door which is also under the window of the apartment. The smell from this toilet in the summer heat was strong!
2) The description stated this is a peaceful quiet place and the whole building has been completely renovated. While the apartment itself seemed nice and newly remodeled, the stairs of the building up to the apartment are in a serious state of disrepair, crumbling and peeling walls including many broken tiles on the steps with sharp edges.
3) Upon arrival it was mentioned that the tub is not working and only a shower was possible.
4) Upon arrival the air conditioned was stated to have a complicated procedure to turn it on however the representative was unable to make the unit operate at all. Opening the windows was not an option with the construction toilet below the window.
We did not stay in this place and after immediately complaining to the host of the horrible conditions we did receive a PARTIAL refund.
