Lakeview 2 Room Penthouse Rooftop Terrace W15

Very clean, Premium and spacious

Nothing to note.

It's a lovely penthouse, we love to come back here.

Exactly as promised and as seen on the pictures. Very clean. Nice and quiet. A very big apartment and a very big rooftop terrace, with a good view. The bed was good, though a bit hard for my taste but the sleeping couch was excellent. All the appliances we needed were there. We were allowed to check in a little earlier which was very much appreciated.

The wifi didn’t work that well, but I also didn’t try that much to make it work, and it wasn’t important for us so we didn’t ask the host. Maybe it would be nice to have a little lamp such as the one on the bedside table in the living room.

The apartment was exactly like the photos—beautifully decorated and in a great location, centrally situated and close to both bus and metro stops. The view from the rooftop terrace is phenomenal, with a lovely view of the lake.

However, the communication felt impersonal. Accessing the code to the apartment was rather complicated and involved switching phones between different hosts. When we asked where the swimming pool was, we never received a clear answer. As it turns out, the pool is three bus stops away, as is the gym—both are not located within the complex, but actually quite far from it. Over the past weeks, temperatures in Bucharest reached over 40°C at times. Since smoking was only allowed on the terrace, a parasol to provide shade would have been very welcome. Unfortunately, the outdoor cushions were damaged, making the lounge chairs extremely hot to sit on. Additionally, the outdoor lighting did not work, which was disappointing as we had hoped to enjoy the terrace in the evenings. In the kitchen, basic items like a pair of scissors and a kitchen towel should be available. The only mirrors in the apartment were two decorative drop-shaped ones—possibly stylish, but very impractical for checking your outfit. Because we used search filters for accommodations in Bucharest with a swimming pool, this listing is very misleading. There is no pool at the accommodation itself, despite what was described on the website — the nearest pool is actually three bus stops away. This is very disappointing.
