For the fist time ever the host asked me deliberately to leave him a 5 star review, which I don't think is appropriate and is really up to me. And as much as I liked the location, the apartment itself has a lot of issues.
We never met a host in person, instead he would always send his "friend" (which I assume is actually a worker whose job is to look after this particular apartment, one of the 25 that the host has) who can barely speak English.
The first day we arrived we wend straight to the city for a walk and food, and only coming back later in the evening we noticed that the water heater was not working. I tried to contact the host via AirBnb chat and the WhatsApp (because it says so on the note glued to the heater) but I was unsuccessful so I had to call him which is a bit pricey for me, and he suggested to either wait 20 minutes for his "friend" to show up and turn it on (because apparently he forgot to do so before we arrived) or he can tell me how to do it myself and thank God I didn't go with the first option, because after his friend finally came 1 hour later (instead of 20 min) it turns out the heater was broken and we had to wait another hour for a master to come and fix it. Also we complained about the lights in the bedroom that wouldn't work and the the ACs (two of them) that were controlled by the same remote, but the remote itself was sometimes working and sometimes not. By the midnight the heater was fixed and we could finally take a shower and go to sleep, and the issues with electricity and ACs were going to be fixed the next day. The sleeping part was a challenge for me, because it was quite hot due to AC not working properly and because I'm a bit sensitive to dust and although the apartment looked more or less clean, the floor was kind of sticky to step on and all carpets would produce like a clouds of dust after you step on them which gave me troubles. So the first thing next morning we did was washing the floor and properly vacuum clean the carpets.
The towels we get were vet and drying on the terrace.
The nice terrace and the chairs and table on it are all covered in dust too, the table itself on the contact with skin would leave you like a lot of small wood splinters. There are a lot of dead plants on the terrace.
The sofa need to be cleaned too because it smells bad, although we covered it with a blanket that we found in the bedroom, but the blanket itself on one end loos like somebody has puked on it.
ACs are also full of dust and needed to be cleaned a long time ago. And although the lights in the bedroom were fixed on the second day, the ACs still wouldn't work properly but thankfully it wasn't as hot outside anymore.
The kitchen also had some issues, like the ventilation there is basically blowing air into the cabinet above, also there are a lot of electric wires everywhere and an uncovered electrical outlet. The frying pan has the teflon layer all screeched out which makes it dangerous to eat from due to the toxicity of the teflon. The microwave is missing. Out of standard oil, pepper, salt only salt was present, etc. Although there is a dishwashing machine it would be nice to have some dishwashing liquid and a sponge near the kitchen sink.
Some of the walls are thin and you can hear your neighbors as well as they can hear you.
The apartment has a great potential, but unfortunately it looks like the host has no control over it because his focus is spread over all of his 25 places he has to manage. I cannot recommend this place to anyone, and definitely would stay there again. 5 star? I don't think so. How about 2/5
