Could be better
This flat is in a great location and is decorated nicely. However I listed that myself and 3 other guests would be staying at this property and no sheets were provided for the pull out couch and there were only 2 towels and half a roll of toilet paper upon arrival. The comforters were not washed but the sheets in the bedroom appeared to be cleaned. Checking Into the apartment was extremely challenging even with pictures and directions because the key lockbox is located on a different street behind an electrical box, almost like a scavenger hunt, Even with the directions and pictures it was not clear the keys weren’t on the same street. The communication with the owner of the property was great and I feel like they would be available if needed. Overall I wish the apartment was cleaned as we are in a pandemic and prepared to sleep/house as many guests as advertised.
