Nothing it was perfect

Excellent location within an easy walking distance of main sites in Bucharest. Easy to get a taxi to and from the airport. Host was communicative via Booking.com and WhatsApp and sent through lots of details of things to do/see (although these were a lot of messages). The flat itself looks really nice inside and was heated well.

A deposit was requested on arrival which I was expecting, but the host didn't meet me and expected me to leave the money (they requested cash) in the lockbox on arrival. The host was quite pushy about this with constant reminders even though I had agreed and acknowledged. I requested a receipt for the deposit as they wanted cash. The host said he would bring me one the next day, but did not. I did receive the deposit back on departure so at least they were trustworthy but this seemed risky. The bed was broken which made getting a good night's sleep challenging. On one side of the bed all the slats were barely in place, and someone had put a stool on its side to try and hold them up, at a completely different height to the rest of the bed. The other side also had some slats which were not attached. I informed the host of this on arrival who said he would look at it the next day. Again, this did not happen. On departure the host reported he was not aware of the broken bed prior to my stay which I find very surprising. Be prepared to walk up and down steps. One escalator did not work and only located another when a resident showed me, but this didn't go to the floor the flat was on. This wasn't really a problem for me, but might be for others.
