Alkhader was a very prompt communicator. He kindly accepted a request to add and then remove a member of our party from the reservation prior to our arrival. The home is in a great location. The apartment is as other reviewers have described. We were unable to use the outdoor swing that another reviewer talked about due to the tall grass. The apartment wasn't as clean as we would have liked, but it also was not worth complaining about when we just wanted to rest our feet from a long day of sightseeing with kids. The stairs to get into the apartment are pretty steep. This was not a problem for our party, but could be for someone else. There were a few mosquitos in the apartment and hanging around the door to get in. This wasn't a dealbreaker, but it was an inconvenience and we considered purchasing bug spray. We did not communicate this to the host because we were out late. I suspect (based on other reviews) that he would have offered us bug spray had we complained about it. As I mentioned before, he was prompt to respond to our communications. Overall, the apartment met our needs and allowed us to enjoy our trip.
