Property was pokey, dark and small.
Review Submitted: 28 May 2010
Date of Stay: April 2010
We stayed in this property from the 13th to the 18th April 2010, and were nothing but disappointed. The photos in the advert are all false - they are of a completely different flat. This flat is on the first floor and faces north so there is no 'balcony in the capital sunshine'. The sofas are not huge, they are not long enough to sleep on. There is no persian carpet, no plain silk and bamboo screens, the TV is tiny with no Sky satellite or difital access. The wifi is in another flat, and so access it terrible and the connection was regularly lost.
When we arrived there was a stain on the bedsheets and only one duvet cover. The owner refused to provide more even though we had requested it in advance. The only source of hot water is an immersion heater which does not provide enough water for a full bath, and only allowed us to take one warm shower a day. The apartment is not a luxury apartment, it is pokey and small, with no sunlight and this advert is completely false and misleading.
We were totally disappointed with the quality of the flat and the owner's response, which amounted to "Well maybe you should have booked a more expensive flat". Yes, we would have booked a more expensive flat if your advert had shown how horrible your flat actually was, instead of providing an advert full of lies, and fake pictures.
Owner's Response: Right from the beginning; the tone of the initial enquiry, had my nose been a little more experienced; I would have sensed this booking was going to be trouble throughout. May I suggest that future holiday makers seeking to enjoy their stay with me pay attention to all the other people's reviews which speak for themselves. Do avoid like the plague these money leaching reduction seeking grabbers of life !!!
