Positive:
- Really enjoyed a living room: wall colours, furniture, windows (for birdwatcher: you can see a pigeon nest on a tree :) ) . TV supports an airplay, which sorted our movie nights.
- Location is great
- Apartment is very big.
- Very well equipped kitchen. Coffee machine was a nice touch.
Negatives:
- Property felt empty. In particular bedrooms are very big, but there is not that much furniture. You can hear an echo there.
- All sounds and even not loud noises are heard from outside of the apartment. I am not sure much can be done about it as it is probably a nature of the old house, but it resulted in us trying to be extra quiet all the time. Noisy floor in the corridor between a living room and bedrooms contributed to the fact that we felt uncomfortable. Tough with a an active toddler :)
- Living room felt dirty in my opinion. Sofas had a lot of breadcrumbs. And I found few empty cans of IrnBru on the floor - that could definitely be cleaned up prior to the check-in.
- Check-in time changed. It is 3pm on the Airbnb site. When you receive an instruction with the details where to find a key, it states that check-in is after 5pm.
