Guest Reviews
- Panumas (4/5): Not suitable for guests with luggage or elderly travelers — steep walk and stairs, no elevator. - The only positive point is that the host responded quickly — although there wasn’t much they could actually help with. This accommodation did not live up to its price at all, and I honestly would not recommend it, especially if you don’t have a car.
While the map suggests it’s close to the city center, in reality it involves walking uphill and climbing two flights of stairs with no elevator. This makes it very inconvenient for those with luggage or elderly travelers.
The apartment felt old and poorly maintained. Cleanliness was far below expectations — the floor didn’t feel clean enough to walk barefoot, and the bathroom had strange dust and residue in the corners.
On top of that, the toilet flush was broken, making it difficult to use properly.
One of the most frustrating things was being charged extra to prepare the sofa bed, even though there were already enough beds in the room. This charge was not clearly communicated before booking.
The washing machine was also problematic — it could only be opened using a knife or scissors, as instructed by the host, which is both unsafe and unacceptable.
Overall, the experience was inconvenient, disappointing, and definitely not worth the cost. If the host wants to offer a trustworthy and comfortable stay, serious improvements are needed.
- Daniela (10/5): Exceptional - Claudia was an excellent host. The condo was exactly as described and even a few cherries on top. Everything was great.
- Deborah (9/5): Superb - Great location & really lots of attention & thought to the accommodation & comfort of guests. Thank you to Claudia for accommodating us on short notice. Thanks so much was a great place for our week of graduation celebrations I think Claudia should maybe consider to state that she prefers non smoking guests & also acknowledge that this is not a stand alone private property as you share common entrance with the owner - so feel like you are in a house share & not a privately rented space. Everything else was great. Thank you
- Fatima (9/5): Superb - Calme, clean, there was coffee Thea, cookies even corn flex water in the fridge etc…. The stairs
- Bubla (8/5): quiet and relaxing! - beautiful location, calm and quiet, very relaxing area of the city. the location is very close to the historical core of the city, but not too close! the area is full with shops and stores to buy food, coffee, etc.
- Tatijana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Remotivated (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. Balcony, view, free parking, location, coffee machine, all you need for a 3-4 days stay., Nothing
- Bahar (7/5): Good - house was very cozy. coffee machine was good there was only one half toilet paper. it would be good there will be an extra one. check out time was 10.00, i didn’t pay attention, asked for extra 1 hour, it was not accepted. 10.00 is too early. we were very stressed to leave house. in the holiday, waking up so early 😵💫
- Kelley (10/5): Exceptional - There were four of us and the sofa bed was all made up so we basically had two bedrooms which was nice after our travels. Claudia had lots of nice touches like shampoo, flat iron, condiments, coffee and creamer, and even cereal. The bathroom is one person at a time for the most part. We brought coffee but had no way to make it after running out of the lovely pods you provided. Minor stuff. Oh and just an fyi. We don’t have floor zero in the US so second floor to us meant one flight up. We were trying to get into your neighbors house!! Oops.
