"Unreliable."

Disliked

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was genuinely unacceptable. I booked this property in January for a 6-night stay in May on an intercontimental trip. Less than 24 hours before check-in, I was informed that the property could no longer accommodate us on the first night due to a double booking issue. Mistakes can happen but the replacement option proposed was not remotely comparable in terms of location or size. We ultimately had to book a completely different hotel, for a higher price under significant time pressure to avoid being left without accommodation. Reliability matters enormously when travelling internationally so unfortunately I cannot recommend this apartment.

The atmosphere was very comfortable and cozy. The place had everything you needed, including adapters. The host was very thoughtful, even leaving umbrellas at the door for guests. It was very quiet at night, without any street noise. There's a CU convenience store around the corner, and many restaurants and cafes nearby. A great accommodation choice.

Disliked

The distance from Exit 2 of the subway station to the accommodation is about 600 meters, which is a bit far. The sidewalk is not very smooth, with some bumps, making it difficult to walk with luggage.

The space is just right and cozy, with everything you need, including a power adapter, coffee maker, microwave, and even two hair dryers. However, I'd recommend it for four people; the single room is converted from a small sofa, which might be a little uncomfortable.
