Very good

We had a good stay, the inside of the flat was clean and smelled good, nice towels and linens. It was also very warm inside, however the owner still gave us extra portable heaters which was nice (we didn't use it). The kitchen is fully equipped. Check-in was easy, we picked up the keys at 3 sharp and the flat was already prepared for us at that time. Everything went well.

Thank you for your lovely feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the cleanliness, comfort, and fully equipped kitchen, and that the check-in went smoothly. It would be a pleasure to welcome you again!
The apartment was spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and easy to locate and access. I felt very safe and comfortable throughout my stay, as the area was quiet and secure—ideal for a peaceful getaway. The location couldn’t have been better—it was very central, making it easy to explore the city and get around using public transportation. The apartment had all the amenities one could need, including a washing machine, which was very convenient for longer stays, and an additional sofa bed, perfect for accommodating extra guests. One of my favorite parts of the stay was enjoying my morning coffee on the terrace. The coffee maker in the apartment was excellent, allowing me to start my day with a fresh brew while taking in the peaceful surroundings. Overall, everything about my stay was fantastic, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located place to stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, communication
Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy
We were delayed gaining access to the flat by an hour because of an arrival date mix-up conveyed to the key drop vendor by the host. This delay caused us to be late for a play in the theater district. The host was communicating and working with the key drop vendor, but the situation still left us standing out in the cold waiting for a proper code to retrieve the keys.The pictures of the flat were definitely staged well. Unfortunately, it does not live up to all the staged photos. The carpet in the entryway was pulled up and loose. The living room floor was so soft, we were worried we would fall through. The bathroom has a 3-4" unmarked step between the door and the toilet/shower (watch your step). There is a hole between the shower faucet fixture/caulk and the tile. The bathroom sink has two faucets. One for hot and one for cold with no way to dispense warm water. The new water heater is too large for where it was installed, so the hallway closet door does not close. The framing has settled around the bedroom door, so it will not close either. There is an unsecured mail slot in the door.These comments pertain to the outside of the apartment itself, so I get that the host has limited responsibility, but the area was poorly lit, with garbage overflowing and on the ground. There were some nasty carpet stains on the stairs going down to the flat. There was some sort of access panel open and sitting in the hallway outside the door of the flat itself.
