Denisa, the host, has been in touch prior to our arrival with information about the check in and she was nice to ask if we need anything. She was able to provide us with soy milk on top of all the welcoming drinks and food she has left for us, unfortunately those did not fit our dietary requirements but was a nice gesture and we appreciated it.
The check in was easy and the place is nicely decorated, clean and well equipped.
There was a cooking smell in the place and we believed it was cause by the fact that there was no extractor fan above the cooker but that didn’t put us off as we were meant to stay only for the night.
What has made us uncomfortable about our stay was that we didn’t realised the place it is part of their home, there was a door blocked by a table that connects the “studio” to probably their living room.
It is mentioned a few times as being a studio/apartment which we felt it was not an accurate description.
We were able to hear the family talking and walking upstairs as well as a baby/ small kid crying. The time we spent in we felt the need to whisper in order to not disturb.
The night we spent in was cold, there was no heating, the bed was decent but there was only a pillow each which was extremely soft, we have had to put cushions under.
And then it was the fridge which was very noisy and only a meter away from the bed with a big bright display facing the bed which has not helped our need to sleep.
We thought we are getting a good deal having an entire studio/apartment for ourselves but in the end we wished we would’ve got a hotel room which probably would’ve worked out the same when adding the time and transportation costs.
An Uber to the centre is in average £20-£25 and takes about 15-20minutes, and an Uber from the airport is around £40.
We believe a better description of the place is needed.
