The check-in was very smooth; our host greeted us promptly and gave us a helpful tour of the apartment. We also appreciated the generous supply of towels and the endless hot water.However, the unit did not meet our expectations for a high-end stay. The kitchen was not functional for cooking, with a tiny refrigerator and older cookware. The air conditioning unit was very loud and unfortunately vented hot air directly into the kitchen. Furthermore, the apartment showed significant signs of wear and tear, including worn cabinets, broken flooring pegs, and numerous areas needing a fresh coat of paint. For these reasons, we would not consider this a suitable alternative to a 4 or 5-star hotel.
