Great apartment, but extremely poor communication
The apartment itself was excellent and fully lived up to its description. It was spacious, comfortable and very well equipped, with a lovely living room featuring a sofa and flat-screen TV, a well-equipped kitchen, two bedrooms, a modern bathroom, a separate toilet and even a small glazed sunroom. Everything we needed was there, and we really enjoyed our stay.
Unfortunately, the communication with the host was extremely disappointing and caused quite a bit of unnecessary stress.
We contacted the host several times before our arrival to clarify the check-in arrangements, as our flight was scheduled to land quite late in the evening. Despite repeated messages through Booking.com, we received no response. Only after sending a separate email were we eventually told that self-check-in was available and that we could arrive at any time.
Even after booking, things did not improve. We received no confirmation of the check-in arrangements through Booking.com, but instead were sent a link to fill in a form. Shortly afterwards, a warning appeared on the platform advising us not to use the link, as it was supposedly not legitimate. This was understandably confusing and rather unsettling. We then provided the requested information through the Booking.com chat, but never received confirmation. We also tried contacting the email addresses provided, including the emergency contact, only to receive delivery failure notifications.
To make matters worse, we kept receiving reminders to complete the form, even though we had already submitted the information and eventually filled in the form itself as well.
The same confusion occurred at check-out: we received conflicting instructions about whether to leave the key inside the apartment or in the key safe.
In short: the apartment itself was excellent and we would happily recommend it for its facilities and comfort.
