Mem is a great host. He communicates really well and fast. I asked before going if there was an universal plug and he told me there wasn’t but will make sure to have one when we arrive. The location is very good as the neighbourhood seems not too loud or busy and there’s a busstop right in front of the door with line 24 running. It’s ideal since bus 24 goes to the touristy and central places we had planned for and is the cheapest way of transportation while enjoying a good view.
The downside however is that upon check in we found out the heater was broken, which led to the small room being uncomfortably warm. We had to cool off in the hallway every so now and then because also the window/blinds were broken and the cleaning lady told us not to touch it. We texted Mem about the heater problem and he let us know that someone would come by at 7pm to get the heater and window/blinds fixed. For us I thought it wasn’t too much of a problem since we were out for the majority of the time. But since the heater was on the entire time, and the room was small, it was extremely warm and it took a long time for the room to cool down (4/5 hours) and as we like to sleep in a cooler environment it was rather uncomfortable.
Unfortunately it seemed that the floor/closet wasn’t cleaned properly as we found long blonde hairs over our black clothes and coats. I myself have long black hair so it must have been from the past guest.
Another point of attention is that our room was on the top floor, which meant we had to climb I believe six flights of stairs and when we got to the apartment we had to take another two to get to our room. With luggage we definitely broke a sweat 😅. So this airbnb is for sure not suitable for disabled guests.
Since our flight was at night I asked Mem if he was able to help us with our luggage after checking out (10am). He was so kind to let us leave the luggage at the airbnb (after checking out) and we could pick it up right before leaving for the airport so we didn’t have to drag it with us for the entire day still.
Tldr: Mem responds fast and communication is good, location is ideal, because of busstop in front of the door. The room is on the top floor and was extremely warm on the first night.
