Pros: Location, location, location!!! The best thing about this apartment is its location! Aside from that, he high ceilings are wonderful, as well as the air-conditioning.
Contras: We specifically picked this apartment so we could cook during our 12-day stay (to keep costs down). However, When we first tried to do so, trying to use the electric hob made the fuses blow.... At first we thought it was our fault, so we turned everything else in the apartment off (which is tough, no air-conditioning when it's 40 degrees Celsius outside). Turns out it wasn't our fault, because however we tried it, the hob made the fuses blow each and every time. We contacted the host about this through mail. He said he hadn't heard of this problem before, and that we should watch our mails as he contacted the insurance company. Unfortunately we never heard from him again, which is all the more annoying as it was on the second day of our stay. Aside from this, the apartment is in need of updating and some maintenance. There's no coffee machine, the taps are loose, the covers on the furniture are loose and have seen better days, etc. The bathroom was alright, but not suited for anyone who's a little bigger.... Let's just say: no space to wiggle about on the toilet or in the shower.
