A bunch of teenagers in the main room as soon as you entered the building didn’t leave for hours, Smelt like weed.

Scam
Pros:

Location was okay.

Cons:

The property is deceiving. We booked a 3 bedroom apartment for 5 guests but they advertised 2 bedroom instead the pictures. When we got there they gave us an apartment on the third floor. The apartment itself was dirty, there was a previous guests underwear found, a used cotton bud, hair in the bed and the place required visible renovations. We were offered a 2 bedroom instead as an alternative which we declined because the guests did not feel comfortable sleeping on a sofa in front of other guests (which the property did not care to acknowledge). They refused to give refund solely because we declined their 2 bedroom alternative. The staff were unprofessional, they did acknowledge the issues and kept dodging our concerns. We found a better alternative on Airbnb. Booking did not help resolve this and neither did the property. Airbnb is the best recommendation.
