Additionally, I would like to share some feedback about our stay. Unfortunately, we were quite disappointed, if not unhappy. As you’ll see in the photos I’ve attached, it feels like we paid hotel prices for what is essentially a student apartment.
The first thing we saw upon entering was what appeared to be a laundry area, with used towels and linens in plain view. The corridor leading to the apartment was unclean and gave the impression of being under constant renovation.
Inside the room, the condition was equally poor and unacceptable: the desk was completely broken, the lamps were unusable because the cords didn’t reach any outlet, the pillows and bed had a noticeable smell of sweat, and the furniture was cheap and noticeably worn.
While the location is indeed good, the overall experience was let down by the substandard condition of the apartment and lack of attention to detail.

The room was clean, but there was a slight yet bothersome sewer smell. Additionally, the sofa bed collapsed in the middle of the night.
