Excellent location, not as smart in reality as photos portray
7 people, 13 nights, cost 10,228 Euros over Xmas.Architecturally beautiful apartment. The location is excellent for seeing the City on foot and by metro. The host was very attentive to our needs, thank you.Sitting room photos accurate. The apartment was well heated, but the sitting room was much cooler and we used the blankets provided in the evenings. The TV speakers are blown. Bathroom fittings are tired - worn out taps and sinks, black mould in the silicone around the bathtub. The showers are reliant on the city water pressure which is weak. The shower above the bath has better pressure, but the water runs along the back of the bath and all over the floor out into the hallway. The kitchen was poorly equipped. This was quickly remedied by the property manager after we raised the issue. The cooker is wall mounted and is so high up that you can't read which setting the oven is on. It was dangerous to use and made cooking an issue for us. Bedrooms - beds have a mixture of memory foam pillows and very hard foam pillows and the duvets were a little too thin for the time of year. The white leather effect beds are all peeling. My bedlinen had a split in the side seam, level with my pillow which had an unsightly old grey duvet sticking out of it, which was not very nice. We requested a maid service after a week and the duvet covers were not replaced as part of this clean.There is significant road noise, for light sleepers like myself, ear plugs were vital.
