Great in pictures -- reality is much different :-(
When I booked, there were no reviews and the pictures looked amazing. Since then, there was a new review posted and its' accurate. The place is dirty, especially the walls. There was a nearly constant sewer smell in the bathroom and there is no AC. In warmer month it would be awful. The fan in the living room is painfully loud, so I'd have to bring the fan from the bedroom to just hear myself. The apartment is on the 4th floor, so a lot of stairs -- and the last set of steps are extremely steep with no railing -- it's not for anyone that has even slight mobility challenges. In terms of the decor, the design of the apartment is excellent, it's just has not been maintained (needs painting and deep clean) and the furniture is in rough shape (burns on the sofa). The dishes and glassware are completely mismatched -- unacceptable -- with Ikea, you can easily have nice dishes and at a low cost (it looks like they shopped at a second hand store). And the exterior balcony door in the bedroom will not shut. With all that, the views are AMAZING -- in the end, I was happy with the location and the views made up for some of the negatives. But with no AC, I would not rent it again. Oh and the management was basically nonexistent -- they handed me the keys with a smile, and that was it -- nothing else. No documentation on who to call if I needed anything -- nothing. And they were slow to respond to my email prior to arrival.
