We stayed here with another couple and their two-year old son. The property is situated in a good location. It’s spacious and has a nice roof terrace with a good view and was as clean as it could be. The host was nice and responsive to our messages and was helpful with our queries. We felt that this property is not suitable for toddlers or children as it needs maintenance. A plug socket was dangling off the wall in a bedroom where a child could have easily shoved their finger in and many sockets and switches were not securely attached, There was a leak in the second toilet that could not be fixed which meant we could not use that toilet. The second toilet (the one with the leak) had a funny smell, there were cigarette burns on the carpets, various stains across the carpets and outdoor/indoor seating and the flat needs a repaint. We had to go up six or seven flights of stairs to get to the flat and two of the floors had no lighting meaning we had to navigate the stairs in the dark while carrying a toddler, shopping and suitcases. Not all rooms have aircon and there was no hot tub as advertised though there was a bathtub with jets in the bathroom. We advised Adrian of the leak in the toilet – although he was responsive, he was not able to fix it. With the other issues, although we contemplated complaining, we felt that the complaints would overshadow our short birthday weekend – we wanted to focus on enjoying ourselves rather than having the weekend taken up with quarrels.
We had told Adrian in the booking that we’re coming with a child so it would have been great to be aware of the issue with the sockets, toilet and the light in the stairs. With some maintenance and updates, this could be a great place to stay.
