Overall we enjoyed our stay because of the location and location alone. For the money we spent, we believe the amenities should have been better. The sheets on the bed were threadbare or had holes in them, and the towels, while clean, has stains. Also the kitchen while tidy did not feel clean, there was grime on all of the appliances, plates and cutlery. All the glassware had watermarks. There were dirty marks on all the mirrors and light switches. The entire apartment felt like it needed a spring clean. The toilet bowl is dirty and needs to be cleaned or replaced it is unsightly. The beds were hard and we could feel the springs in our backs. We had to go out and buy a HDMI cord so we could watch movies through our laptop, and there were no good DVDs or CDs as promised in the welcome letter.
We paid in excess of $600 a night and there wasn’t even a welcome bottle of champagne or any nice bath products. I would recommend the host invest in some quality linen, a good cleaner, and think about how to decorate the space and add nice touches for their guests in future. It felt like no thought had gone into making it an enjoyable stay for us worth the money we paid.
