The host was always very kind. And Denise was a peach!
I’ll start with cons.
Cons:
The bed felt extremely uncomfortable with a thin mattress; to the point where I had back pains every night.
The make up of the bed seemed rushed and lazy. (There was no filling sheet, so even if you move just a tiny bit, you may end up exposing the mattress beneath)
The couch is extremely sunken in.
And the garbage has no lid, so take care of what you dispose of as you may end up smelling it throughout the flat until you take it out.
Staircase always smelled Smokey and it was dirty.
Staircase felt tiny, maybe it’s a U.K. thing though. (This didn’t bother me really)
The last few days it looked like someone dumbed a bunch of new sheets and blankets on the ground to the point where you had to walk over them in order to get to and from your building.
The makeup of the bed was flimsy.
There were times I could hear people shouting in the streets.
I mainly ordered food from Uber eats, it seemed the delivery was always either across the street or next door (location kind of difficult to pinpoint, even though it’s right in front of your face!) I was forced to catch them each time so they don’t go to the wrong door.
Pro:
If you are into grabbing a bite though, there are some nice selections near by.
Fresh fruit market nearby.
Not to mention there is a park.
All basic amenities were in place.
There are many power sockets throughout. I worked in bed, kitchen, near couch. Was convenient that they were in place.
All in all, I wouldn’t return. Not worth it at current price with the issues I’ve encountered.
Sorry to leave such a strict review.. just being blatantly honest.
