Not worth it.
The view is just as pictured, the area itself is great. Lots of things near by.
The elevator to get into this apartment is super tiny and uncomfortable, not worth it if you have a lot of luggage.
The apartment itself I was so disappointed. The stairs in this apartment are extremely unsafe, as soon as you walk out of the bathroom you need to be so cautious of where you are stepping. The bathroom with the shower is on the bottom floor right where you enter the apartment which makes it pretty inconvenient when you have to bring your stuff down on those stairs to just take a shower
Upon my arrival, the cleaning lady was still there and I literally had to wait for her to be done cleaning.. Mind you I was checking in almost 2 hours past the actual check in time. It was super awkward but I brushed it off. I was extremely annoyed given I had a long flight and just wanted to be alone and relax.
Then I found poop in the downstairs toilet and I messaged the host, she right away brought that cleaning lady back in.. I already flushed it so I’m not sure why that was even needed. I took a picture and the owner said it was impossible since the cleaning lady always puts bleach when cleaning…. Why would I lie? Lol
I was already getting the vibe that I was unhappy with the place I kept trying to brush it off- we were so exhausted so we decided to sleep. The other guests in the building were extremely loud in the hallways and just completely disrespectful So we didn’t rest like we wanted to.
We then went out and when we arrived back there was ants everywhere. I was up vacuuming at 10pm. It was like an ant hill in the apartment. I was so fed up and decided to contact the host once again. Also please keep in mind, the walls were pretty disgusting as well. Full of grease and god knows what else. When I was vacuuming I noticed garbage under one of the couches. And that was just my last straw. I was able to cancel and get my refund for the stays I wasn’t there. Host was pretty cold about the situation. I don’t think she was fully aware of how disgusting the place was even though I sent pictures however she was kind enough to let me check out late because I couldn’t find anything that late to stay it especially given it’s a foreign country for me. Again, the view is great. But the communication- eh. A clean airbnb is a huge thing for me and this place was not clean at all. It was pretty inconvenient for me to find a new airbnb, in a new country. So that’s also why I give it such a low rating. Literally wasted my time. I’m thankful airbnb support was able to also help me out in this situation and make sure I was reimbursed.
Also, it’s very sad that when I checked out this airbnb was available to reserve the same day. How about fixing the ant problem, and fixing up the apartment before letting another guest reserve??
