The host was very responsive and helpful and sadly that is as far as our positives go. The flat smelt of damp and stale cigarette smoke. We were unable to get any hot water in the shower. As a result of this, and many other flaws, my family and I ended up leaving a day early.

Hi Louise,
Thank you so much for your feedback. We’re really sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations, although we’re pleased to hear that you found us responsive and helpful.
Since this review, we have temporarily closed the property to carry out a full refresh and make a number of improvements throughout. The property has now been fully updated, checked and prepared to ensure it is ready to welcome guests again. We really appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention, as guest feedback helps us continually improve.
We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with the comfortable stay we aim to offer all of our guests.
Das Appartement war leider doppelt gebucht. Die Vermieterin hat uns daher eine andere Unterkunft im gleichen Ort zur Verfügung gestellt. Diese war neu und noch gar nicht vermietet gewesen. Sie war wesentlich größer als das ursprüngliche Appartement und wir haben sie zum gleichen Preis erhalten. So haben wir ein Gratis-Upgrade erhalten. Zum Appartement kann ich daher kein Feedback geben.
