DO NOT STAY HERE
Damien was excellent with regards to accomodating our incorrect dates, we were arriving a day earlier than we booked (our mistake), however the positives end there.
Less than 24hrs prior to arrival, he sent us info which was not included on the listing ie there are some minor renovations still needing to be completed. We didn’t think too much of any issue.
Upon our arrival we were greeted by an intention to fumigate notice attached to the main doors. This was posted on the 12/3/19 ( 4 days prior to our arrival) for cockroaches and ants.
Upon entering the apartment it appeared in good order, upon closer inspection the kitchen window was smashed with cracked glass so that didn’t keep our noise or BUGS.
The kitchen utensils were filthy with grease and food scraps, as was the kettle and toaster.
The apartment was in a great location, however we had a much bigger problem.
COCKROACHES...they were everywhere, in the shower, kitchen cupboards, in the sofa, up the walls and along the floors.
We contacted Damien and he said there wasn’t a problem (fumigation notice was posted, he must of known)
I requested a full refund so we could leave but he declined and would only refund the remainder of the stay.
Everywhere was booked so we couldn’t leave!
Each night we were killing around 10/15, on the last night we were woken by one crawling across our bed.
Needless to say we packed up as soon as we could and got out of there.
Damien explained that the apartment wasn’t as much as everywhere else but that’s no excuse for poor hygiene.
The place shouldn’t of been listed with a known cockroach infestation.
Oh and there was no wifi.
Such a shame as it’s in a great place.
