Had no power for our whole stay

Turned up after check in and the room hadn’t been cleaned. Power went out within our first few hours of being there, contacted the helpline multiple times and they said they’d send out an electrician. They never did! Spent the whole trip with no way to charge phones in our room and no lights!

In the bathroom the water doesn‘t drain away. The TV and the kettle don’t work. If you try to speak to the management, you‘ll kept on hold and nobody answers the phone. The area around the entrancy smells stinky. In the room there are many stains on the furniture. These appartements are horrible and not worth any penny.

Value for price

Only booked this because it was close to an event I was attending and was happy at the price. I was surprised by all the in-room amenities because I want looking for that. A person staying longer would have benefited from the kitchen, dining table and ironing board. I was impressed by the large bathroom including a whirl pool bath tub.

Fine for a short cheap stay. But otherwise - Black mould. No soap or dish soap to wash anything. The kettle and some appliances can’t be plugged in because they don’t supply adaptors. And a lottt of spiders.

Poorly maintained Fan so broken and out of balance that it couldn’t be used Shower head hose broken and sprayed all over the bathroom Was advised routine maintenance was to occur during my stay, so I told them about these issues, but nothing happened Was advertised as daily maid service. Didn't happen The common area is filthy. If you a light sleeper, I suggest staying somewhere else. The trolly tram runs directly outside

The neighbourhood is really nice, easy to get on transport. What was a bit confusing when I got keycode when registered I thought it was the room code. I got an email the day before about mainfloor access code and didn’t know it was room code as well. So was a bit stressed when tried KeyCode and it didn’t work. Just randomly punched in main floor door code and it opened the room.

You have been warned : do not stay here is you don’t want your money to be stolen, stranger entering your room when you are naked, no toilet paper for the whole trip and climbing up 4 huge staircases with your big suitcase. I paid quite a lot for this property for 5 nights, and it has been the worst nightmare of my 2 months traveling through Europe. Its the worst property I ever stay in in my entire life. First, it is very far from city center. Second, they double charged you and acted stupid when you wanted your money back. Jerome who is a staff here ignored my request to have toilet papers for the whole trip and ignored my request to refund me for the double charge. My friend and I ended up rushing to groceries to buy toilet paper as the staff here can’t be contacted when you need them. Trash is not collected in the room, no change of towel, they said they don’t do that for anything less than 7 nights (we stayed 5 nights). Such a horror! do not stay here. Save yourself from nightmare like mine.

Schlechte Unterkunft mit gravierenden Mängeln

Die Heizung war defekt. Anscheinend ist das Ventil kaputt. Es sieht so aus, als hätte jemand dagegen getreten. Die Wohnung wurde nicht warm. Auch nach Kontaktversuchen meinerseits, zum Unterkunftanbieter wurden folgende Mängel nicht behoben. Meine Kontaktanfragen und natürlich auch die Anfrage auf Rabatt, aufgrund den Mängeln wurden einfach ignoriert. Die Tischplatte war lose. -> Man konnte nichts darauf abstellen. Die Küche war defekt. Der Kühlschrank war defekt. Die Duschkabine war defekt, sodass man nicht duschen konnte, ohne das gesamte Bad unter Wasser zu setzen. Ich bin eine Nacht eher "ausgecheckt", da die Wohnung zu kalt war. Die Kontaktanfragen wurden ignoriert. Ans Telefon wurde nicht dran gegangen. Die E-Mails wurden nicht beantwortet. Anscheinend wusste man welches Zimmer man vermietet und dass es gravierende Mängel aufweist.

„So lala“ …… Der Erste Eindruck- Hoffentlich bleibt es nicht so. Ich dachte als erstes - vielleicht doch ein Bordell? - ich habe in einer Unterkunft noch nie als Erstes nach Bettwanzen geschaut. - Glück gehabt. Täglich sauber gemacht? Andere Zeitrechnung? Staub überall. Wenigstens die Bettwäsche schien sauber. Auf dem Balkon lag eine abgefallene defekte Store. Zum Glück war nicht Sommer. Es war günstig aber sauber darf es dennoch sein. Ich hatte keine andere Wahl und musste bleiben. Hab’s überstanden aber noch mal - nein Danke.

Appartamento molto essenziale. Si parla di appartamento ma la piccolissima zona cucina non aveva corrente. Bagno per nani. Wifi assente nonostante riportata, appartamento non pulito. Caccia al tesoro per trovarlo. Una volta all'interno la chiave era nascosta, non è stata una bella esperienza. Lo sconsiglio
