BpR Castle Point Apartment

The location is great.

We wanted to leave a bad review from the get-go, and it just got worse. The apartment was dirty, there was pubic hair in the shower, and the blinds and a window were broken. There's a strong sewer smell coming from the bathroom. Then, people tried to get into our apartment while we were sleeping! The management company is awful, so don't even think about booking with them. Here's the full story: One morning, we were still asleep when someone started fiddling with the door, trying to get in with a key. When I opened the door, they said they were there to install a new gas meter and that we were supposed to have been informed. We weren't, of course. We told them to leave, but they kept coming back. We told them it wasn't possible since we had morning meetings. Later, we left for a while to let them into the apartment, and they kept coming back again after we got back, and the whole apartment smelled like burned metal from their work on the gas pipes. In the end, they told us they'd need to come back again the next morning. At that point, we gave up, checked out, and found another place to stay. The owner told us over the phone that he'd give us a refund, but when we messaged the management company, they just stalled and then completely ignored us. Even before we traveled, we started getting messages from Indian phone numbers, trying to get our credit card details. They knew our booking ID and the name of the management company. When we brought it up with the company, they blamed Booking.com. This is a huge red flag as the management company not taking responsibility for their own mistakes is another huge red flag.

A localização fica num bairro residencial, um pouco abaixo da entrada do distrito de Buda pelo lado oposto ao castelo. Era ótimo para olhar a cidade a noite, do bastião do pescador. O apartamento era simples, mas resolvia bem o que se precisava. Máquina de lavar boa, calefação boa.

O banheiro com o vaso sanitário tinha um cheiro muito ruim. Parece algo está funcionando mal com o esgoto daquele vaso sanitário. Não era questão de limpeza, mas de mal funcionamento. As portas entre os quartos tinham uma parte de vidro, se um ligasse a luz, acordava quem estava no outro quarto

Labai gera vieta, kokios 10-15 min iki žvejų bastijono,jei megstate vaikscioti viska galima paiekti pestute.Butas paprastas,bet konfortiskas. Švaru. Yra kondicionieriai kurie gelbėjo kartomis dienomis.

Buvome ilgesnį laiką, virtuvėje truko šluosčių,rankšuostuku ar pan. Nebuvo šiukšlių maišų. Jei trumpai butume buvę nebutų užkliuvę.

Well thought out apartment, sparsely but efficiently furnished, situated a stone's throw away from Buda Citadel (400 meters) and close to a transportation and commercial hub at Szena ter and Mammut Mall (400 meters). Good communication with the team handling the guests - frequent messages and thorough information. The apartment is well lit and cosy. It has every appliance you need (microwave, dishwasher, coffee pot, flatiron etc). A great deal for the asking price.

There was a foul odor coming from the pipes in the bathroom. The refrigerator had a funny smell and froze everything over, even the vegetables. There were a lot of spots which could have benefited from a more thorough scrub. Attention: like many apartments in Budapest, this too has the water closet separated from the actual bathroom!

Big apartment

Nothing

Great location, close to transport hub with a lot of connections and few stations away from the most important landmarks in Budapest. You have a lot of stores, markets and big mall in the neighborhood. You have everything you need in the apartment, and i can point out one bonus quality. This was the most quiet street and building, which we have used in the past throughout the biggest European cities.

Check-in at 15:00 is logical and expected because of the cleaning process of big apartment, so be prepare for that if you have an early flight (and two kids :) ) like us.

I loved the apartment, everything was nice :)

I loved everything, will come again will parents next time and book this only... :)...this time I was with a friend and I had my own privacy...

Good size. Full bathroom. Big bedroom. Comfortable beds. Promptly supplied kettle when advised it was lacking. Close to Fisherman's Bastian, nice jog/walk. Easy public transport into the centre (frequent trams to centre over Margaret bridge), to Children's railway and buses through Fishermans Bastian, Buda Castle over Chain bridge to Pest side further south. Shopping mall nearby. Lovely sunny yellow walls and nice outlook. Minutes to closest Lidl.

Usual tiny chopping boards (cheese boards actually) and poor knives. There must be a black market for decent sized chopping boards and sharp knives stolen from short-term accommodation somewhere, as we almost never find them! Door to balcony was off 1 hinge and the door and windows weren't sealing properly, making the adjacent bed cold at night. The dining area was small & fridge is in a hallway cupboard (I'd take the door off). It's just the skeleton of the building, not the fault of the owner, I think. There weren't enough dining chairs, but we brought 1 in from the balcony. No couch/sofa, just 1 armchair and Ottoman. Second to last morning we were woken up by loud hammering and then an angle grinder. There was building maintenance going on in the common area so I would have expected the accommodation. managers to be aware. Unfortunately it was our only chance to sleep in during a very busy week. That all sounds very whinny! Overall we really enjoyed our stay.
