    Having to share the bathroom and the apartment with different people. But I guess the price speaks for itself

    The location is perfect and safe. Kitchen fully equipped

    The sheet were not washed and had a weird smell on the first day. On second day they were clean and smell was eliminated.

    It was very safe and under surveillance.

    We were given a house and we were told we are the only guest in the house later i went out from our bedroom to the bathroom and asvi was sitting on the toilet a man opened the door and they were smoking all in the house. Worse part the owner was screaming my parners name at the door early in the morning asking why did he put the latch he just apologised for the sake avoiding stress meanwhile it was those guests who in in last while we were sleeping. She had our cellphone no she could have phone instead of screaming at the door.

    Don't carter for breakfast
