We were disappointed with the apartment and the level of service from the host.
As a Superhost myself, I don’t like to leave negative reviews but here are some things you should know:
The apartment is managed by a property management company, rather than an individual owner. The check-in process is inconvenient. You are required to go to their office (7-10 minute walk) to pick up the keys and they won’t meet you at the apartment. If you need any additional supplies (eg. laundry soap, extra towels) you must visit their office. They don’t deliver to the apartment.
The common areas of the building in which the apartment is situated are dark and a little shabby.
The apartment itself was clean and functional but not some place we were excited to hang out in. The furnishings are very basic. The kitchen was not well stocked and had only the basics. The bedding and towels were thin.
The apartment’s windows look out on a drab interior courtyard where the other apartments have balconies with their laundry hanging, or storing their cleaning supplies. When the windows are open, you could hear every noise the neighbors made (loud coughing all night from one neighbor, loud TV noise from another). We had the windows open because we were there in summer and there is no air conditioning (which we knew about before booking).
