Unirii Downtown Apartment

Checking in instructions were really bad! The owner sent me a video on WhatsApp, on the day of arrival, with instructions on how to gain access. But I didn't have any data, so was wandering aimlessly around trying to find somewhere with free wifi, and had absolutely no idea in which direction to head! Sending the video the day before, so I could download it, would've been loads better! The apartment itself was fantastically located, with a balcony that looked out over the cobbled Old Town streets. The room was large, the bed very comfy, a lovely big TV to plug my FireStick in, a huge fridge freezer, and a big bath with lovely hot water. However....as previous reviewers have said, the drain overflow is in the bathroom floor, and the drain is not big enough to drain the water away even whilst you shower, so when you have a bath and empty it, it floods the bathroom, and I had to use all my towels to stop it flooding the whole apartment! It took me an hour to let a little bit of the bath water out, then wait til it overflowed, then put the plug back in and wait for said overflow to subside! Also no kettle, which was a big let down.

Very nice apartment, clean, situated very central and very easy to get in.

very central, the apartment is nice and it was clean

I did not like at all the fact that the flat was too noisy as there is a pub at the grand floor, Big Ben pub, with loud music all the night. The vibration of the music made it impossible to sleep and I had to sleep on the floor of the kitchen as the music was less intense there. I stayed only one night, but paid for five. I informed the host and he only proposed to move me after 3 nights, basically I would have to sleep on the floor of the kitchen or not at all, 3 nights out of 5, I left the key after the first night. He did not propose any kind of refund. The flat is advertised at one address but then it is at another. If you book , and you are interested in sleeping, clarify with the host the address and the position of the flat. If it is in str Francesa at the corner with the pub you will have the music all night and starting again at 11:00 in the morning all day long.

Location and the price. Warm home and good money for value

Do NOT book – SLEEPING IS IMPOSSIBLE! This was the worst accommodation experience we’ve ever had. There is a nightclub in the same building, with loud music and bass blasting until 5 AM – even on a Monday! On top of that, drunk people were shouting in the staircase at night. Sleeping was absolutely impossible. We decided to leave early, but the host initially refused to give us any refund. After a lot of back and forth, we were only refunded half a night. The place itself was poorly equipped (not even a lighter to use the stove), moldy, very old, and poorly maintained. Please save yourself from this experience!

Comfortable, clean apartment.

Noisy location. But this has to be balanced against being on the edge of an area full of bars, restaurants and nightlife. Only to be expected.

Great location! In the middle of the city center, a lot of space, nice balcony with an amazing view over the Old Town. Plus a very responsive host (early check in and late check out possible )

The bathroom door did not close, the sewerage smelled. A bit loud during the night as the balcony door did not close tightly.

Location is really good, in the heart of the city.

Entrance is not clean and smell is not good (from entrance to room, I.e stairs)

very nice and clean apartment with all the things you need from bathroom amenities to kicken wear, location is right at the start of the old center

unfortunately the noise at night is very loud from the clubs around, especially in the weekends, and the door to the small terrace was not closing properly so it was not as sound proof as it could have been
