Categories

Cleanliness
6.8
Mixed reports: several guests praised cleanliness and tidy rooms, but there are multiple complaints about places being dirty or only superficially cleaned (one review describes the apartment as not cleaned at all). Overall slightly below target due to those strong negative reports.
Service
8.2
Mixed but generally positive: host often responded quickly and was helpful by phone; instructions for self-check-in were praised. However some guests reported difficult contact (no WhatsApp), slow staff responses and unwillingness to accommodate (e.g., charge for early check-in). Rating reflects generally good responsiveness with some notable exceptions.
Location
9
Generally praised for convenient location and easy access to metro; described as quiet and suitable for short stays. A few guests found it far from the city center or supermarkets, but overall location impressions are strongly positive.
Room Quality
7.6
Mostly good: rooms described as spacious, large bathrooms and well-equipped. Minor negatives include a somewhat firm mattress for some guests and at least one report of an apartment in poor condition.
Amenities
7.3
Some positives like a supplied coffee machine and capsules and well-equipped apartments; negatives include missing items (no hairdryer), a dirty dishwasher, and limited glassware. Overall modestly positive but with specific shortcomings.
Value for Money
7
Not many direct comments on price, but issues such as a charged early check-in (20 EUR) and a guest losing a day due to booking problems lowered perceived value for some visitors.
Food and Beverage
7.8
No full food/beverage service discussed in the reviews; in-room coffee capsules were mentioned under amenities. Assigned the target overall rating due to lack of explicit F&B commentary.
Overall Experience
8.7
Overall mixed but leaning positive: many guests report smooth, clean, well-equipped stays with easy contactless check-in and helpful hosts, while a few had serious negative experiences (very dirty apartment, difficult check-in). Rating reflects the generally favorable majority tempered by notable negative outliers.

Bad experiense
Pros:

Sure, here’s your review in natural, clear English:



Unfortunately, I had a very bad experience with this apartment and its owner.

First of all, the apartment is very far from the city center. When we arrived at the building, the key was not where it was supposed to be, and we struggled a lot. The owner didn’t have WhatsApp, so we couldn’t contact them easily. Luckily, a passerby helped us call the number listed on Booking (it required a Hungarian phone number). Somehow, the owner sent the key with a taxi.

When we finally entered the apartment, it was a disaster. The place was in terrible condition—dirty and not cleaned at all. We asked for a refund, but instead, the owner moved us to another apartment. Unfortunately, that one wasn’t good either.

We lost one very important day of our trip (we were only staying for 2 days), which was extremely disappointing.

I would not recommend this place at all. It was a terrible experience.

Cons:

I didnot like !!
