APPALLING EXPERIENCE.
My experience with this property, and both Eliie and Scott has been absolutely horrendous. And I would not want anyone else to suffer the same experience as I have.
The listing is not as described in the advert. In both the blurb and photos.
Please find details below:
First, the front door to the street is permanently left open, making it easy for criminals to access the building.
Second, the building the fiat is situated in is dilapidated. The inner glass door to the main building is smashed, and shoddily boarded up with a bit of wood. Leaving broken glass exposed. Further, as this is the only barrier between the street and the inner building, criminals could easily break in through the glass (and look like they have tried to already). Ellie and Scott have not supplied any photos of the main building — both outside or inside.
Third, the communal corridor smells of mould and is dirty.
Fourth, the actual flat itself is small, dirty and dated. The bedroom just about fits the double bed. The shower has significant black mould, posing a serious health risk, and the amenities, such as the shower and cooker are seriously dated. In addition, the WiFi was weak when I tried it — I could not access my emails.
Five, the tap in the bathroom does not work properly and neither does the shower.
Due to the above issues I cancelled by booking and left the property the day I arrived, forcing me to return home, which involved a 7 hour return trip. In total I spent 14 grueling hours traveling in one day.
Needless to say, my trip was completely ruined.
