Boris’s home was exactly as it was advertised! It was very easy to get into. He was very proactive about instructions prior to my arrival, and all of the codes worked exactly as promised. He also offered a place for me to lock up my bags if I arrived early, which is a great perk!
As a woman traveling alone, I was a little bit nervous about the dark long sidewalk you have to walk down to get to the back of the house where the apartment entrance is. But there were motion-sensored lights, and it seems like a reasonably safe neighborhood, so I had no issues!
The apartment itself is fine for a quick trip. The decorations and furnishings are very outdated and could benefit from a refresh! The bed was not comfortable, but it did the job. You can easily fit a small family or two friends who don’t want to share a bed in this apartment if you plan on spending most of your time elsewhere!
In terms of location, it’s clearly not near any offices or attractions, but I was able to find coffee!
