Place and location were great, center of a whole bunch of restaurants and sites. I can imagine a nice spot when not traveling during a pandemic.
Pool wasn’t open, and hadn’t been for some time according to staff. That was a major bummer because I had inquired before booking. I should have known better and called the property directly so I’ll take that loss.
Check in and out process went nicely. He sent lots of detailed instructions/pictures on how to get in and out of the building. .Very quick responses when communicating.
When I checked out I had put the keys on the counter per his request. Late that evening I got a call asking where the keys were. I guess he called before checking the apartment...
Be sure to read the house rules carefully. I was looking for a trash bag, and pizza cutter at one point and at another point had used a candy jar as a flower vase for a bouquet I picked up at the market. I placed the candy in a drawer so the kids wouldn’t eat it. I forgot to put said jar back so when he got home he said he didn’t know why we felt the need to go through everything. Not the case, was just looking for basic household items.
I recommend if you don’t want people in any of your drawers or cupboards, that you remove your personal items or add notes that say DO NOT OPEN. You do have a lock on one cupboard. If this is a concern to you then you should prepare your guests for success by being extra clear on what is/isn’t able to be used.
Note: be cautious if visiting with children, you’re on the 7th floor and windows don’t have child proof locks, one didn’t have a screen.
Thanks for the stay Ben, we enjoyed ourselves.
