The apartment is in a convenient location and well-furnished. It was clean on arrival, quiet and quite comfortable.
Unfortunately, some things did need attention. Many of the lights did not work and the apartment contact person is rather reluctant to invest in improving this situation.
1. The light in the bedroom didn't work for all of our stay there (5 weeks). The contact invited an electrician to check it out, and after he said that the ceiling light fixture needs to be replaced because they don't manufacture these bulbs anymore, the situation remained unresolved. The small bedside lamps had to suffice for the whole stay.
2. Half of the living room lights did not work.
3. All the lights in the bathroom stopped working. The contact responded slowly to messages and we had to move one of the bedside lamps to the bathroom - this was unsafe but we had no other choice unfortunately as there was complete darkness in the bathroom after 5 PM. It took her 5 days to bring an electrician. Despite the fact we communicated her what were the bulb types in case it's just a bulb replacement issue and not a more severe electrical issue, this information was ignored and she claimed the electrician came when we weren't there and the bulbs just need replacement without actually replacing any of the non-working bulbs in the bathroom or in the living room. We replaced the bathroom lights ourselves. She did offer to cover the cost of lightbulbs we bought, but as soon as we had resolved the bathroom light issue, She no longer felt the need to replace the other missing lights.
In addition, when I checked the property on Airbnb, the apartment amenities included a dishwasher (something I couldn't have seen in the pictures as it's a built-in dishwasher) and I sent the booking request immediately afterwards (about 2 weeks before the check-in date). When we arrived we discovered the dishwasher was not working and she claimed the dishwasher was removed from the list of amenities before our booking was finalised (without letting us know about it before approving the booking request or reducing the price). The contact did send a technician to check the dishwasher who said the control board needs to be replaced. A month later, this was also left unresolved.
Fixing the dishwasher, being more responsive and ensuring the place is properly lit and in good condition would make this into a wonderful place to stay.
