  Unsafe, unclean, and poorly managed property

  Liked: Hot water in apartment for long showers after whole day of walking. Location is dicent, not so loud.

  Disliked: Where to start — unfortunately, there were many negative aspects to this stay. First of all, we were not accommodated in the room that we originally booked. Upon arrival, the entrance to the hotel was extremely unsafe: there is a very deep trench at the entrance where someone could easily break a leg. It is so deep that a person could fall halfway in, and there were no warnings or protective barriers. During our 6-day stay, the room was NEVER CLEANED. When we asked about cleaning, the host informed us that we would need to pay an additional 50 euros, which was never an option for us. There was also no hand soap, toilet paper, or basic bathroom and kitchen supplies provided so after your trip you would need to go to near store to buy all necessary for your stay. The property appears to operate without any on-site staff. Upon arrival, we spent nearly an hour walking around the property trying to figure out how to enter. In the end, we discovered that our room was located in a different building, which was not properly marked. We only found it thanks to another guest. When you try to contact them over booking massages they replay in another day, or not replay at all. There were also serious maintenance and safety issues. The hot water heater was leaking water, and water was dripping onto the microwave oven, which is extremely dangerous and poses a clear electrical hazard. Double bed was significantly smaller than expected and felt more like a child-sized double bed in comparison. Additionally, the mattress and duvet were made of materials that retain excessive heat. As a result, sleeping was very uncomfortable, and we woke up sweating multiple times during the night. The internet connection was very poor and unreliable, especially in the evenings, making it almost unusable. The TV offered only basic channels, most of which had weak or no signal. Overall, this stay was very disappointing and did not meet even basic hospitality and safety standards.

  Liked: The only thing we liked was the location and the bed was clean.

  Disliked: Apart from the bed the place overall wasn’t clean, there weren’t any supplies to clean the dishes in the kitchen and the owner demanded the dishes had to be clean. There was only one towel for two people, there was dust under the bed, the toilet was very dirty and it smelled very bad. Even though the bed was clean, we were sleeping fully clothed because there were ants.
