Overall score: 8 / 10 Categories: Location: 9 / 10 Cleanliness: 9 / 10 Comfort: 8 / 10 Facilities: 9 / 10 Value for money: 7 / 10 Staff/Communication: 10 / 10 The studio has an excellent location, with very convenient access to public transportation. The Obor metro station, as well as tram and bus stops, are just a short walk away, making it easy to get around the city. The famous Obor Market is nearby for fresh food and local atmosphere, and Veranda Mall is also within walking distance, which is very practical for shopping, restaurants, and everyday needs. The studio itself is modern, cosy, and well thought out. I particularly appreciated the small study/work area, which makes it suitable even for longer stays or remote work. The space is self-contained and equipped with all the essentials, including a washing machine, iron, hairdryer, good internet connection, and a smart TV. Overall it feels comfortable and practical. Communication with the host was excellent — quick, smooth, and very easy, which made the stay even more convenient. Overall, a very pleasant and functional studio in a great area, particularly suited for solo travellers.

In terms of size, it is perfect for one person. A couple could stay as well, but it might start to feel a bit compact for two people, especially during a longer stay. One thing to consider is that other options on the market may offer slightly better value for money, depending on the price at the time of booking.

The location is excellent, just a short walk from Piața Obor, Veranda Mall, and lots of nearby shops. The contact person was friendly and helpful when I mentioned that the kitchen needed a bit of cleaning and that there was no hot water when I arrived.

The apartment is nice and spacious, but there are a few small improvements that could enhance the experience. Replacing the dusty plastic plants that with real ones would help achieve the peaceful, zen-like atmosphere the property seems to be aiming for. The bed could also be of better quality—it's not very comfortable to rest your head against the shelf at the headboard, and a bedside lamp would be a great addition for reading or having some light at night. There were also some issues with the water pressure and hot water—at times, there was no hot water at all. Was difficult to wash your hair. The apartment is spacious and well-located, close to Piața Obor, Veranda Mall, and many shops. The host was kind and responsive to my messages.
