Let’s start with the positives:
- convenient location
- newly renovated building
- sufficient amenities, ie, towels, cutlery, etc.
Next, the so-so:
- main door into the building was always unlocked. The lock at the time of our stay was broken.
- the pillows (two on the double bed, which means one per person) were very thin and didn’t offer any support against the metal headboard.
- there were no clothes hangers in the room. Inside this massive, custom-made wardrobe - no clothes hangers.
Next, the absolute horrible:
- we stayed in the apartment C2 and the smell of methane (sewer) gas was very strong. Nothing could mask it, the open window in the washroom, the flushing of the drains, the open window in the main room, nothing.
It is obvious that the owner is trying to maintain the building in good condition and make it attractive to the short-term tenants. Umbrellas in the lobby, clean hallways, newly renovated exterior of the building, newly renovated interior of the building, are all the indicators of a good host. Unfortunately, whoever did the plumbing in C2 washroom didn’t do a good job with air venting, thus causing the sewer gas seeping into the inside air.
