John's property unfortunately didn't meet the expectations as it was advertised. After checking in and had time to look around while settling in I have noticed several issues in the apartment. Sliding door on the wardrobe was broken and completely loose, old carpet in the bedroom with stains, the bed was stained and old definitely need replacing same with the sofa in living room needs replacing too old uncomfortable and dirty with the stains and bed smell. The place could use fresh paint as there is a lot of marks on the walls. Shower was leaking on the floor, found some spots of mauld in the bathroom, toilet seat was loose and sliding side to side when sitting down, drawers cupboard broken very difficult to open drawers. More than 50% of the storage in the apartment was filled in with personal stuff saying that considering the size of the apartment there is not much storage as it is. The outdoor space wasn't clean either with a lot of cobwebs everywhere. The whole place wasn't professionally clean and ready for guests and the apartment has major ents problem which was very concerning. The ents were everywhere in the kitchen and living area. I have contacted John the same evening and I asked to meet with him next day as it was a bit too late. When he arrived next day and I showed him all the issues he was surprised and apologetic and explained that he had a couple living there long term and they left just before my booking. John was very helpful in the whole situation and was willing to rectify the issues and offered to reduce the price for the booking but I have decided to check out as I wasn't prepared to stay in the place that wasn't guests ready especially all these could be prevented if properly checked before new guests... Bottom line was it didn't meet the standards but I'm confident that John will fix all the issues addressed and get the place back where it was before 2 years ago.
