Lovely apartment with everything you need. Roberto was lovely and charming
Not easy to find so directions could be a bit better. Not enough pillows, if there were spare ones in the wardrobe that would have been amazing

The location was good
Everything else, we came and the property was not cleaned, we asked the person on the mobile number provided by Booking.com to come and clean first no response then we got through, they cleaned parts of it changed the very dirty blood stained linen however the linen was still stained so were the towels it was washed but not properly
Booking.com promised a refund I’m still waiting, their was a weird note on the wall but I’m not sure how genuine it was

Bed was super comfy and host was friendly
Water pressure on shower wasn't great.
Wasnt able to have a bath- drain wouldn't shut properly
Limescale in kettle, completely unusable
Heating only worked in bedroom but not the bathroom.
Electric went out for a while.
Light triggered when someone walked past our flat
Bedroom door handle a little wonky, had to leave door open to prevent being locked in.
Utensils weren't the cleanest
Told not to cook anything too high on the stove or the smoke alarm would be triggered.

The host was available via messaging and phone all the time, during the booking, pre check-in, during check-in and post check-out. Extremely helpful explaining local area too, provided some extra bedding too.
The sofa bed is perfect if you are not 6ft, may be better suited for someone around 5.5ft to be fair, other than that everything else was great.

The apartment was very poor quality. Dirty, dog hairs all over the floor. Sticky floor and kitchen cupboards and utensils all dirty. Fridge was filthy. We did not feel comfortable staying so left!
Lots of people moving around, and passing by.
The bed sheets in the room were dirty, uncleaned and had stains on. We sofa bed was solid and uncomfortable, even to sit on. The bedding provided for this was a throw, which smelt and had hairs on it.
There was loud music and base playing all around the apartment which was very bad, specifically as we had hoped for somewhere quieter. My friend is deaf and he was very unsettled by the vibrations of the base pumping through the apartment. Due to all of the reasons above, we decided to leave after a couple of hours, causing our experience and entire evening to be ruined. We would like our money back and strongly suggest that you do not book here.
In the claustrophobic living room space, there was a dirty wall, with a low ceiling which was easy to bang your head on. As it was dark and claustrophobic and warning sign would have been helpful. The flooring was sticky, dirty and had rips on it. Just awful and not as described or seen in promo images. When we arrived there was food wrapper on the bedroom floor (cheese string) as pictured.

The tv had YouTube and free private parking in the back.
Location was difficult to find, Kettle didn’t work, dirty bathroom, doors didn’t close properly, smoke alarms have bags on, people are in a communal area next door to us, the bathroom had flooded and owner came whilst partner was in shower he had to get out in his towel all for the manager to mop the floor as it was leaking / flooding from the toilet/shower corner. Everything was filthy needs a professional deep clean, curtains dirty, leftover stuff in fridge/cupboards, even the mop and sponges were brown, had to buy my own sponges and hand wash. Sofa uncomfortable tv wouldn’t let us connect in lounge area only bedroom. Didn’t feel clean. Stains on bed, the communal toilet was outside the room no privacy, can hear everything upstairs and next door, the neighbours music was blasting loud from morning to late night had the worst migraine and couldn’t sleep in peace. The parking was rocky road in back and the back door was left unlocked open, there was a crackhead trying to sell me perfumes as I came down the stairs. Felt like a hostel and left feeling disgusting and was not peaceful/relaxing/comfortable at all.

Nothing I left after 10 mins of being showed the
Room
I had a van full of tools I didn’t not feel safe leaving my van where it was parked. The room itself was just so far from what I’m used to, I couldn’t stay there. As a 26 year old bloke working away from home I felt unsafe there so I left the keys and booked in a village hotel.

The rooms were decorated very nicely and were clean.
The property was made up of other apartments and rooms. It did not feel inviting or very safe. Almost an impression that some of the people were on drugs. There was loud music coming from other properties. The parking was not clear where to go and as a result was told to leave my car as that would be fine, only to have an altercation with the neighbour who was taking a picture of my car, pointing out I would get a ticket. Be careful where you park and do not park anywhere where there are 'private parking' signs, even if the host says to leave it there. As I didn't feel safe as a woman on my own, I left and went elsewhere. There was not enough kitchen utensils if you did want a drink or cook etc. I had to have my gin in a cocktail glass.

Apartment is above the owners hair salon who told us on a arrival would be open until 2am which seemed odd for a hair salon.. when we arrived at 11pm there was no work happening just a group of 4 women with loud music and shouting/laughing , this went on until 5am. Very little sleep and no sound proofing in the apartment, we watched tv to try and drown out the noise but could still hear them over the tv. Felt incredibly uncomfortable as could hear arguing going on downstairs around 3am. The bed was slanted and woke up aching all over. Property parking very hard to find. Overall the worst experience I have ever had in a paid accommodation. Would like to warn others never to use this accommodation and they should be removed from booking.com. No consideration for us and the fact we paid to stay in her apartment. We left early hours to go home and sleep.

Good location, had all the facilities we needed.
Nothing, in fairness we only stayed for one night so very little time to form much of an opinion. Host was friendly and welcoming and there was nothing wrong with the place so all good 🙂

Druggies partying in the car park out the back, no clear indication of how to access the property, people knocking on the door in the early hours and a general unsafe feeling
