Depressing, dark apartment with some nice features
The host was very nice, meeting us for the key hand-off, and he gave us good directions for parking. However, the apartment was disappointing. The lighting was dim and dismal, especially over the dining table. I stretched on the rug on the floor, and when I got up, my leggings were covered in dust and dirt. The decor was dingy; everything looked liked it had been scavenged. For a two-bedroom apartment, there was only one set of keys, and it cost about $30 USD to get two copies made for our party of three independent adults. The kitchen lacked a pasta pot and colander, although I was grateful that there was a clothes-washing machine. There was dish soap but no laundry soap. The dish cabinet was ingenious-- a drying rack right inside so you don't have to transfer the dishes twice. The beds had very worn-out mattresses. The WiFi was poor, so I couldn't contact the host, who requested our documents via WhatsApp. The location was okay. Bring earplugs, as it's very noisy all night long. While it was convenient to have an apartment with kitchen, it was not a pleasant place to spend any time in.
