While there was a lot to love about the property — the colors and some small decor touches and the little private courtyard area, for example — it didn’t quite live up to the glamour of the photos. The stairs are not for anyone who plans to drink, walk up or downstairs confidently, or otherwise be mobile to the top floor. The railing was wobbly and we avoided moving btwn floors for fear of falling. The upstairs tub finish is peeling and, though the host says they wash it frequently, the foam mat that’s supposed to cover the damage is insufficient and kind of gross. Perhaps we came in between redecorating (?) because there were large screws jutting out of portions of the wall where it would have made sense for paintings or other artwork to be. It really detracted from the beauty of the apartment on a whole. I’ve made these complaints quite plainly to the host and was told “the stairs are French, the mat gets washed, and my feedback would be used to improve for the next guests’ so maybe that lucky ‘next’ guest will be you.
