We did not actually end up staying at Malcolm’s place, but wanted to review to flag the recent situation.
The building that the apartment is in looks rough. When you enter the smell of urine and marihuana is present, the corridors and stairs are very dirty - you would not put your child on the floor.
In all fairness once you enter the apartment it was spotlessly clean, we had a discuss with Malcolm and decided that this was not the place for us.
Communication was great and we ended up with partial refund.
