Great location, plenty of space for the two of us, host responded to messages very quickly, easy checkin, snacks and wine provided (very thoughtful). The major problem for me was the second bedroom, bathroom and utility closet reeked of cigarettes, the other occupants of the building smoke in their flats and the stairwell and don’t give a “hoot” (to put it nicely). I can not fault the host, when I let him know about the smell he responded straight away and was very concerned for our comfort...he even offered to head around with extra air fresheners. Unfortunately the smell was so strong an air freshener would only serve to change the smell from a stale ashtray to a perfumed ashtray. I ended up dragging the mattress from the second bedroom to the master room and sleeping on the floor in there. I wouldn’t recommend this flat to friends....and that’s only due to the smell. Maybe the flat should be advertised as a smoking flat.
A little extra attention to cleaning (checking wineglasses for lipstick) wouldn’t go astray.
