Convenient location and adequate facilities we expected better for the price
Pros:

The location was great

Cons:

Lack of space and plugs. Bathroom very small. Though the bathroom seemed to be newly renovated the shower curtain was moldy. Bed was too tight as it was pushed up the wall and no night stands or plugs on any of the sides.

Pros:

Appartamento in città. Comoda per girare a piedi.

Cons:

Abbiamo avuto difficoltà nel trovare il modo di aprire con la COMBINAZIONE. PER IL NOSTRO APPARTAMENTO IL CODICE SI DOVEVA INSERIRE SULLA MANIGLIA ( NON SPECIFICATO). ATTENZIONE NON LASCIARE LA MACCHINA DAVANTI PERCHÉ ARRIVA LA MULTA MA È PRESENTE UN PARCHEGGIO RISERVATO SULLA DESTRA ( DETTO SOLO DOPO DALL'HOSTES).

Pros:

Last minute booking and we had to extend the rental for a day without any hassle

Cons:

Previous renter smoked in the room as I could smell it when I entered. We opened the back door to let fresh air in for a few hours, but it was impossible to get rid of it.

Pros:

Ubicación excelente y es grande

Cons:

La puerta que había en el salón coincidía con una puerta del apartamento de al lado y sonaba cada vez q abrían o cerraban alguna puerta. Además estuvimos en un tercero sin ascensor que hacía complicado subir las maletas
