The experience with this apartment was mixed. The location is central but a bit noisy when the windows were open. Everything in this apartment seem brand new. Well equipped with basic cooking equipment, washing machine and air conditioning. The outdoor terrace has nice outdoor furniture. The host was kind and reserved a parking space for us at a discount and in a secured garage which was about 10-15 minutes walk.
I gave 3 star to this apartment was based on two factors: (1)The apartment stinks like smell of sewage. When we entered the apartment on day 1, we thought the smell was due to heat and lack of air ventilation. So we opened all the windows. The smell did not go away and we had no clue where the smell came from. Then, we did an experiment by just closing the door to the bathroom and keeping all windows open. After 2-3 hours, the smell in living, sleeping and cooking area was almost disappeared. However, when we entered the bathroom, the sewage smell was stronger than before. We realized the smell came from the bathroom. We contacted the host immediately explaining the situation. The following day they sent a staff over who witnessed/smelled the sewage smell not only in the bathroom but also near the door on the terrace. They sent over a house-keeper the next day by pulling some chemicals into the toilet but it did not work and the smell stayed. It was so unpleasant whenever we entered and used the bathroom. (2) WIFI signal in this apartment was almost none or very weak (when there was signal). We contacted the host a few times during our stay but the issue was the same after the host explained that the problem should have been fixed.
We were told the apartment was recently opened and new. The sewage smell in such a “luxury” apartment was the worst experience that we had during this holiday.
