We stayed Mrs. Astghik’s apartment for five weeks. The apartment is well-maintained and is exactly as it appears in the photos. We found it clean and practical. We liked the fact that the apartment is airy and bright. The kitchen has literally everything necessary for cooking. We also liked the fact that there is a dining table as we used it to study. We liked the comfy couch in the reception as well. Mrs. Astghik offered us many sets of clean towels and bedsheets. She also offered us shampoo, soap, tissues, etc. It takes 8-10 minutes to walk to the nearest tube station and 3-5 minutes to walk to the nearest bus stop. A lot of supermarkets are nearby. The neighborhood is quite and nice.
Unfortunately, one day after midnight, we saw a mouse crawling on the kitchen floor. We were terrified and contacted Mrs. Astghik immediately. The next day she came along with her husband but found nothing. However, we noticed a disarrangement in the kitchen staff that night. We contacted her again the next day and insisted that a pest-control company checks the apartment. She responded quickly that day and came along with a man from a pest-control agency. The man found the droppings (waste) of a mouse. It turned out that there were some holes in the kitchen through which the mouse managed to enter. To be honest, when Mrs. Astghik found that my friend and myself were really frustrated, she offered us another place to stay in for the rest of our stay (6 days). But we were really exhausted for not being able to sleep for two days and asked for a refund for the remaining 5 nights. She was understanding and agreed at once. Maybe the future guests will not face this experience as hopefully the pest-control company took care of it.
In addition to this experience, we didn’t like the fact that a lot of staff was left by Mrs. Astghik in the apartment. We needed more space as we were staying for a relatively long period. Also, the curtains in the bedroom are not heavy enough to curb sunshine.
On the personal level, Mrs. Astghik is very responsive and decent. Maybe it is just our bad luck that we had to share this bad experience together.
