The good: the flat was sparkling clean, the location is amazing, the neighbours/other tenants are lovely and were very tolerant of my toddlers, there’s a big grassy backyard and it’s great value for the area.
The bad: I had to wait with many many bags and small children for an hour and a half to check in, and go back to where I’d been staying mid move because I was given the wrong lockbox number and Natasha didn’t answer my messages (I tracked down her number eventually but it’s not easy to find) and while Natasha was apologetic once she realised what had happened, initially I did feel like I was causing a bit of inconvenience. The balcony had piles of building stuff on it that belongs to Natasha, which makes it feel a bit like it’s her space rather than the tenants. It’s a beautiful old building and space but it feels a bit like there’s not a lot of love or personal touches put into making it a really nice space to be in.
