Great Location and Host
Natasha was a thoughtful host, lots of goodies including chocolates and milk on arrival. She also had great info about the local area. The location was great, 2 mins walk to beach and shops.The apartment has construction next door and we were woken 7am every morning by relentless Jack-hammer and power tools. The bedroom is at the front of the apartment and was described as having a lovely garden outlook. The reality is that it overlooks the stinky communal rubbish bins and the whole area is literally swarming with thousands of flies which are attracted by the rotting berries falling from the trees directly in front of the bedroom so there is no way you can have the door open to let any air in. The shower pressure is great but there is a super-gross mouldy shower curtain that is meant to keep the water off the floor but it doesn’t so you basically have to use a rag to try and stop the shower spray hitting the floor. The main window in the kitchen/meals area opens to the communal stairs, as does the bathroom window and the bedroom overlooks the front entrance to the building so we felt very overlooked.Host is a great communicator, welcome chocolates were lovely as was location but the description and photos of the property were very misleading. I can never unsee those swarming flies or that mouldy stained shower curtain.
