My wife and I booked this apartment for a week’s stay at the end of January. Unfortunately, there were two safety issues that compelled us to leave early: an electrical problem in the bathroom and missing burner control knobs on the kitchen stove. Regarding the overall condition of the apartment, we found it lacking in a number of areas, the main one being that on warm summer days it is extremely hot and uncomfortable because it’s on the second floor of the building and it receives a great deal of sun exposure during the day. In addition, because the building is rather old, there is an unpleasant, musty smell throughout the unit which is even stronger in the master bedroom, the doors and woodwork are chipped and in need of repair, the ceiling in the master bedroom is deteriorating and peeling, some of the carpet is loose and buckled, and the couches and balcony furniture is worn out and extremely uncomfortable to sit on.
