This apartment is in a fantastic location and has plenty of promise to be lovely if a bit of work is done. The photos are accurate but don’t show tired and distressed paintwork, carpets, woodwork, etc. All leading to the apartment just feeling a bit unloved.
We actually left our stay early due to a leak issue affecting an elderly gentleman living below the apartment. As soon as the shower was turned on, he came and said his roof was leaking and he’d been told to tell us by the owner. I visited the man to apologise as my partner answered the door when I was in the shower. He invited me in to see the leak and I was appalled, the poor guy hasn’t got a ceiling in his kitchen and can see rotting floorboards under the shower.
The host tried to blame this on a mains pipe but I visited half an hour later to get photo evidence and the water had stopped, clearly because the shower had then been off a while.
My advice would be to check with the host if this is fixed before booking.
