I would first like to start off by saying that our host was wonderful. Due to traffic she could not be there at our check in time so she discounted our stay - which was extremely thoughtful. I wish we had gotten a chance to meet her in person because the prior reviews had said such nice things about her! That said, there are a couple points regarding the apartment itself that I would like to touch on. First, we were a bit surprised to find scaffolding / construction obstructing our room view which we were not told of before arrival. This was a bit disappointing as the view was one of the main reasons we had booked the room in the first place. Additionally, the shared bathroom was quite dirty. Finally, the apartment did smell of cigarette smoke. My boyfriend and I are non smokers so this did bother us, however, if you do smoke then that will not be an issue for you! Our room was clean and comfortable, however, given the price we honestly would have stayed elsewhere had we known the quality. Overall, I’m not sure if we just had a bad experience or if the prior reviews were not completely honest.
