After leaving this apartment on October 12, we must communicate our strong disappointment in the apartment.
We were initially taken aback by the disparity between the online photos and the actual space. The upholstery was soiled, the washing machine smelled like mold, the dishes and silverware were not clean, and we never did understand why there were small flies in the kitchen area. We opted not to use the bigger bedroom because it did not smell good. In addition, the safe did not work, and more than once we almost tripped over the uneven and loose floorboards.
Needless to say, we were disappointed but accepted these discomforts because we liked the neighborhood.
Unfortunately our last night at the apartment was horrible. Suddenly the place was overrun with mice. In every room. Persistent mice. We were afraid this might happen because the review posted just before this also referred to mice, but by the time that was online it was too late for us to cancel.
We contacted the owners and they would not give us a refund of any kind, despite us wildly overpaying per night. So beware before you book this place, or lower your expectations. Or learn to live with mice.
