We were disappointed to find that the pictures in the apartment listing were clearly taken some years ago. Thereâs now no childrenâs equipment in the bunk bedroom, the playroom has nothing except a tattered poster, box of Lego and a camp bed.
The whole place seems shabbier and more battered than the photos appear. Plug sockets coming out of the walls, large cracks in mirrors, shabby paintwork, broken stools, lounge air conditioning barely works etc. Not well cleaned or looked after with limescale caked around the kitchen and bathroom. Kitchen is large but fridge / freezer had broken bits that werenât clean and we didnât use the oven more than necessary as didnât seem to have been cleaned for a long time. Bath plug didnât hold water which made things difficult with 2 small kids and no cleaning equipment.
Location is good but noisy - the double and bunk rooms have double glazing but the camp bed room doesnât and made it hard to get to sleep.
Iâm sure the place was lovely 10 years or so ago when it was first done up (which seems to be whatâs shown in the pictures) but itâs now more run down.
