Great location but needs better maintenance and cleaning

Nice apartment but we had three problems. The first was access. There is no indication on the website that it is anything other than a level easy access. In fact there is a long, steep set of stairs to negotiate every time one needs to go to or from the apartment. No problem at all for healthy young people but not so good for my 90 year old mum who was basically confined to the unit and the little patch of grass outside. Second problem was hopeless cleaning before our arrival. The dining table was sticky all over and there was a big sticky blob of goo embedded in the carpet next to the second bed. Third problem is the stink (disgusting stench) emanating from the floor drain in the laundry. Apart from these things it was very nice!

Cockroach-infested nightmare

I recently had the misfortune of staying at what can only be described as a vermin-infested nightmare of a holiday rental property. Our weekend getaway turned into a cockroach haven that still sends shivers down my spine. To begin with, the apartment seemed to have a fascination with German cockroaches. These vile creatures practically took over the place.  The floors were littered with the remains of at least 10 dead cockroaches – a macabre display of the property's inability to maintain even a semblance of cleanliness. As if this wasn't enough, the live cockroaches were infiltrating every nook and cranny imaginable – from kitchen cabinets to beds, furniture, and even the kitchen slab. The outdoor furniture and patio were adorned with dead leaves and dirt. The windows and door glasses appeared to have not seen a cleaning cloth since ages and were full of stains and grime. The cherry on top of this disaster was the property agents' spectacular display of unprofessionalism. Initially, they seemed to recognise the gravity of the situation and offered a fair compensation for the trauma we endured. However, true to form, they backtracked on their promises faster than a cockroach scuttling into a crevice. To add insult to injury, they've now chosen to ignore my phone calls, leaving me feeling like a frustrated and powerless pest in their own game. Do yourself a favor and stay as far away from this property as possible.
