A éviter

Mise à part de sa situation dans le centre de la vieille d’Edimbourg, cette appartement a été une grande déception. L’’immeuble paraît bien mais dès la porte franchie tout est sale et dégradé. Il faut savoir que l’appartement qui se situe en rez-de-chaussée est bas de plafond. Il se compose d’un petit couloir d’entrée, d’une chambre très petite (difficile de faire le tour du lit), d’un petit séjour, d’une cuisine sans fenêtre et d’une salle de bain/WC très très exiguë, si votre stature est un peu forte vous aurez du mal à vous glissez entre la porte et le mini lavabo pour atteindre les toilettes. Quand à la douche si vous arrivez a entrer dans la cabine ça frise l’exploit. Je vais vous parler de la chambre à coucher, le lit est d’un autre temps trop petit pour deux personnes, la couette est trop courte en longueur et trop juste en largeur, le couvre lit rose était taché, les portes de la penderie sont complètement déglinguée. Dans la cuisine qui est donc sans fenêtre, il n’y a ni sel, ni poivre, ni épices etc comme dans les autres logements, la vaisselle laisse à désirer, une poêle qui est bonne à jeter, la bouche d’aération du congélateur pleine de poussière. Le sol de la salle de bains gondole, la porte ne s’ouvre pas complètement, la bouche d’aération est plus que sale, la luminosité est à pleine plus claire que celle que vous avez dans les souterrains d’Edimbourg. On ne peut pas se sentir bien dans ce logement. Son prix n’est pas moins cher pour autant. Nous l’avons payé plus cher que Adagio qui n’était malheureusement plus disponible à ces dates. Cet appartement ne devrait pas faire partie des sélections proposées par abritel. C’est visiblement juste pour faire de l’argent. A fuir ABSOLUMENT.
