Very Good

  : I Iooked at this because it was in the right position for me. The view across the Boulevard Victor Hugo was good from the balcony on the fourth floor. Although the road is fairly busy, I found it quiet at night. It is near a tram station and there is a free bus stop little for a little bus which goes along the promenade.
  : Nothing really. There are a few stairs to get to the lift though which might be a problem for some.

  : fabulous location and view . balcony . lovely traditional building .
  : confusion on arriving at property the entrance is at the side not main road . a helpful restaurant owner next door showed me the entrance . the bed had no bead board and moved very easily. and so moved away from wall for pillows to drop down . no cloth to dry dishes or wipe surfaces so had to buy . sent a message twice to agent regarding check out which was not replied to these small things made what could have been a great stay into an ok stay

  : Lovely location , great view from balcony. Just a short stroll from supermarket and close to the metro. 10 min stroll to the Promenade.
  : Air Conditioning did not work. This made sleeping very difficult for first 2 nights. We were offered a new apartment which we accepted.We had to ask for a taxi to be arranged for our move. We had to pay for the taxi ourselves. There was no follow up email to enquire if we were okay in the new apartment. There was only one chair on the balcony..we stayed in the same apartment last year and I made this same comment regarding balcony after our holiday last year.

Very Poor

  : - The receptionist was extremely helpful.
  : - Cleanliness. Very poor standards of hygiene throughout apartment. - List of expenses which were ridiculous. e.g. 20 charge if you didnt empty your own bin (surely this is basic housekeeping) - No toilet roll. - No top sheet on bed. Had to sleep on bed with no covers as the old blankets provided were not sanitary. - Poor maintenance throughout. We opened door and handle fell off. We are now afraid they will try to charge us due to ridiculous security deposit. We shouldnt be charged for poorly maintained facilities. - An unacceptable request to give card details for a 500 security deposit. We have never been asked for this amount unless we have signed a lease for a year!!! This seems like a con so they can inspect your room and find issues. Basically to pay for their own lack of maintenance. - You have to request certain things before hand including towels and bed linen. Electricity and heating is also included on the list of things you have to request - not sure what would happen if you didnt request this - The keys for the apartment are kept at main reception 15 minutes walk away. We were made aware of this when checked in and as mentioned receptionist was helpful in helping us find this. However, after a long journey trying to find two different locations in a city is challenging. I fully expect this accommodation to respond to this review saying that the above of untrue which is most definitely not the case. To be transparent I will say that I did try to cancel our accommodation prior to our stay after getting a request for the 500 deposit. They refused to do this. A lesson well learnt - always read the small print!
