I and my partner stayed at Kira's place for one night out of 5 nights booked. I canceled after the first night because the place lacked the kind of upkeep that feels safe and healthy. Aspects of the apartment are true to the pictures: the sunniness, the layout and furnishings.
But here are some things that are not in the pictures that you should know: in this basement apartment there are some large enough holes for rodents (in a rat infested city) in the joining of walls to ceilings and beams, and lack of sealed finishing from ceiling to floor, large missing floor tiles, and some clutter in hidden areas outside of the pictures. One bathroom shower head works well. There's also a configuration of extra shower heads that look really fun, but when you try them they just leak in all directions. When we went down the stairs to the apartment the hand rail fully came off the wall as it was screwed into plaster instead of studs and we were carrying heavy suitcases, so we were lucky not to have had a bad fall. There was an electric kettle that had a white film in it that came off when I ran my finger over it, so I didn't use it, and a very nasty old skillet. The walls and floor are scuffed up with wear. As to funkiness, the kitchen sink is I think an industrial kind, very deep and awkward to work with, but workable.
It was pretty cold when we arrived, but we noticed the space heaters and turned them on and that made a big difference. The bathroom heater is really warm. The hot water is hot and of good water pressure.
The furniture was very comfortable.
Though there were good things, the combination of problems made the place too uncomfortable and unsafe for us to stay. With that said, Kira's communication was amazing the whole time. Communications were prompt and kind and they offered a refund of much of our money. We're working on figuring out potentially a full refund. Kira and Anton responded saying they would get over there and fix things up. So stay tuned for them doing so. The place really is potentially a great sunny place when these things are fixed up. It's in a convenient part of town. Parking is tight, but we found places nearby.
