Karine was an amazing host. She and her friend welcomed us warmly to their apartment and treated us like family, yet still leave us with a lot of privacy.
+ Well equipped kitchen with free oranges (and coffee, cakes, etc) daily!
+ The apartment is really interesting and full of characters with a lot of paintings and photographs.
+ Super respectful and welcoming host. Karine even welcomed us earlier than check-in time for putting our luggage there.
+ Spacious room.
+ Karine was very attentive and always left clean towels for us.
+ Apartment is close to lots of shops, bars, etc but still remains the vibe of a residential area.
In terms of the apartment facilities, it is a pity that there are some complaints:
- The warm water is really hard to catch for shower. Karine warned us about it, but it took really really long to wait for the warm water. And when it is there, it goes away pretty quickly.
- The wifi quality is pretty bad. If you want to watch some videos, it is quite difficult to watch in one go.
- The windows cannot be closed.
- The neighbors were so so loud. They stayed up really late and made all types of noise. With the thin walls, it was quite hard for us to get a full night sleep.
○ The bed is a bit sinked in, which was ok for us, but might be a problem for people disliking soft mattresses.
Overall, I am torn with this apartment, as I love the host but the stay was not pleasant, mostly because of the noise and warm water problem.
