The host mentions in the description that this apartment is in a peaceful neighborhood. This is inaccurate for the following reasons:
Lots of Noise at night until late hour—- lots of traffic, loud music, sirens, people reviving up their car engines, honking, shouting, blasting music from their cars.
If you’re out late this may not be a problem for you but if you want to get an early night and are sensitive to noise then you’ll need to bring earplugs.
No proper curtains so the light from the Main Street comes into the living room at night.
The place has a really narrow staircase and the apartment is on the highest floor. This is a massive pain if you have large luggage with you. It's fine for backpackers but you want to consider another place if you have a lot of luggage. Furthermore the light goes off after 20 seconds so it's not safe. There is no indication of this in the hosts description.
When we got there it took us over an hour and lot of back and forth with the host to figure out where the bedding is for the sofa bed. It was stowed away and the host had no idea about it and had to reach out to other people to figure it out. There was only a not-so-clean duvet - no bedsheet. There was also no toilet paper and the host had to send someone to bring it. We were also missing a towel for the third person. This is not what I expected for the amount of money we paid!
The instructions to get to the place could have been a lot clearer. It's on a busy street and it's hard for cars to stop there to drop you off and there is no transparency on this at all.
The host was responsive but was just apologizing for other people not doing their job properly (no toilet paper, towel etc) instead of taking any responsibility.
It's a good spot if you want to explore the non touristy parts of town and if you want to go out late at night.
Airbnb/host needs to ensure more transparency on certain important things like noise-level, long narrow staircase, the host hiring other people to take care of the place (and therefore not having control over how prepared it is for the next visitors).
