Good things: The Neighborhood felt safe. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were good. The apartment was clean. You can park the car inside the secure patio.
Nuetral: We should have looked more carefully at the pictures. The apartment is a three story walk up. It is one of three units in the picture There is no bathroom on the entrance floor. Some of the bathrooms are the style where the shower shares floor space with the toilet and sink.
Not so good things: The common space is very small. The kitchenette/living room combination was not very well equipped. With 4 persons, it felt cramped. There was no welcome book or guidance in the apartment and it made it difficult for foreigners with a language barrier to figure things it.
Challenges: We had two situations that required immediate assistance, and although the owner did respond via VRBO, there was no one onsite to assist. We arrived at night just off the plane and the patio doors were blocked, so we could not bring the car inside to park. It took over two hours for the owner to get the car moved, so we could secure our car and get some sleep. Also, we arrived home on our last night just before dark to discover that the power and water did not work. The neighbors had power, Again, although the owner did respond via VRBO, she was unable to reach anyone onsite to help. We had to go up the street and get two hotel rooms for the night. The owner credited a single night and we had to assume the added cost.
