This apartment has a wonderful location. It’s right on a tram stop, has 2 grocery stores across the street, is near a post office and an ATM, and there are several restaurants nearby. The apartment itself makes great use of the space with a bed, couch, kitchenette, and balcony. Fair warning: The bathroom is huge, but only semi-private with a frosted glass door, so I hope you’re comfortable with your travel partner!
I would give a perfect rating if not for a bad experience with the booking. We initially booked for 2 people, but then a friend from Germany planned to visit for 2 nights, so I messaged to see if that was okay. After nearly 3 weeks (and just 1 day before we flew out) I heard back. They altered the weeklong booking to be for 3 guests, adding $200+ to our total. It would only be 3 guests for 2 nights, not 7, but I approved the alteration because it was late in the game to find somewhere else for our friend to stay at that point. Then our friend arrives and we find out she booked a hotel after all, argh. It was miscommunication all the way around. I messaged to see if the booking could be changed back to the original and they’ve ignored 3 messages.
I feel bad about the confusion and the trouble, but most people probably wouldn’t even have cleared a temporary additional guest. I was trying to be honest and it backfired. I’ve always found Airbnb hosts to be friendly, understanding, and communicative, so this experience has been a bummer and put a real damper on our trip.
