In general the apartment is exactly how it looks on the pictures - it's a very small studio (about 20 sqm) but well equipped for its size. What's not in the pictures is a smell - the apartment is located on a low first floor, right above an open basement. That's why it is very humid and smelly, especially in a "corridor" near the entrance. No direct sights of mold though. First days it was really hard to get used to it. Humidifier helped, but not that much. The second half of my stay when rains finally stopped and the weather improved it became much better. The Internet is ok. It is stable and enough for having video calls, but is quite slow in general: 15-20 MBit download, under 1 MBit upload (ADSL). Windows face a small inner garden. Neighbours have tables and chairs there, during sunny days it's nice to sit there. But during rains it's an extra source of wet, and every evening - insects. The location is good. Both nearest metro stations are about 10 minutes by walk. Tram stops are about 5 min and the trams are very convenient in Prague. Run according to a schedule and can get you directly to the center, Malostranka or Vysehrad. Large mall with hypermarket and ice arena: 10-15 min by walk. The rest you can see in the photos and judge yourself. Overall, if not the smell, I would say the apartment is a good value for money - for summer time when it is not that wet.

Apartment as on the photo, spacious and with a separate office - workplace. Near the metro and shops. Sara a wonderful and pleasant! From minuses - the flat requires a normal general cleaning and work on getting rid of mould

Aunque el piso está decorado muy bonito, lo cierto es que es antiguo y se escucha todo, al menos en el cuarto en el que estuve. El fregadero de la cocina apesta, no sé si tiene humedad o que, pero había días que era insoportable. Supongo que el hecho de que viese a alguien del persoal de limpieza vaciar un cubo de basura de los que tenía debajo dentro de otra bolsa en la que echaban todos los residuos que separamos (chao reciclaje) no ayuda, porque esa bolsa se quedó ahí al menos una semana aunque se vació como tres veces al menos. Tampoco es que dispongamos de muchos productos de limpieza más allá de una aspiradora sin cepillo que se desmonta facilmente, supongo que para fomentar que contrates la limpieza extra, del mismo modo que te cambian las toallas una vez a la semana pero no las sábanas a no ser que pagues por este servicio. En definitiva, me esperaba algo mucho mejor, pero parece que es todo fachada. Por cierto, el ascensor estuvo averiado durante toda mi estancia, y a saber cuánto tiempo lleva así. Me hubiese gustado saberlo, ya que llegué muy cargada y contaba con al menos poder poner las maletas en el ascensor y no cargarlas dos largos pisos de escaleras.

Beautiful view, instructed to the west (simply bad architecture, unfortunately) so you can’t see the sunset…. It still nice though because you’re oceanfront. But that’s all that’s nice: super uncomfortable beds, rock hard, most uncomfortable I’ve ever slept in, and they’re two different single mattresses (not quite the same level of discomfort, but both still terrible), and they won’t stay together, they drift apart with hardly any movement, so it’s really bad for partners who like to cuddle or care about being close… not to mention it makes it very difficult to sleep - worst sleeping month I’ve ever had in my life. Must be a super cheap owner, the couch is a cheap old one that’s super uncomfortable and hard to find a decent seating position on. Sparse furniture, no rug, we asked for a rug and the manager was nice enough to bring it back in, but it was so old and disgusting we can see why they took it away. Super basic, just a typical old concrete apartment cube with nothing extra and sparse, old/dated furniture. Could be so nice if the owner wasn’t so cheap and short-sighted. C’est la vie

Tl;dr: -Fundamentally good value for a large central flat with modern amenities -Stinks incurably due to damp, full of broken furniture and has very noisy long-term building works nearby In detail: A large and central flat, somewhat tainted by a damp problem (strong odour and mild but incurable black mould on walls) and a litany of more minor problems easily curable but for a lazy, contemptuous and incompetent landlady. In her own words, without irony: -“All of the people renting this place are spoilt.” -“There is no mould problem - I sprayed it all with bleach the day before you got here! Just put the heating up [in 26degC heat] and use the spray to mask the smell.” -"...it is not my problem that the building is wet for example or how the canalization is functioning here...sometimes yes, sometimes not." -[Describing the broken double bed at check-in] “It is fine as long as you don’t move at all.” -[Regarding all of the kitchenware being filthy on arrival] "Do you expect me to wash the dishes between every tenant?"; "I am making general control of the flat once in a year" In conclusion, still plenty for your money if you're on a budget. But, if you can find comparable prices elsewhere then steer clear.

So, the apartment is big, it was recently renovated. The location is perfect! WiFi speed was enough for two people for having video calls. It also has Landry room with a dryer. But, they're also a downsides: don't expect much, as we did, since the apartment is partially a basement. But despite that, the apartment has its own entrance, which is plus! Keep all of your food in the fridge, I'm not joking, ALL OF YOUR FOOD should be kept Ina fridge. Otherwise it will attract the cockroaches. Don't repeat our mistake, we had to kill tree of them, while we stayed for two week. and they're really big =) Apartment also has constant smell of humidity. We also had a shortage of the garbage bags. During two weeks, the cleaning was done only once: towels and sheets were replaced, but garbage wasn't thrown, and kitchen surfaces wasn't wiped.

20th May 2024 We don’t normally write reviews, however in this occasion we feel we must. Upon arrival at the building of the apartment is very dirty and smelly including inside and outside. The walls of the building is very dirty too. When entered the lift was very dirty and smelly The apartment was dated, but it wouldn’t have mattered so much if it was cleaner. Floors were very dusty; Curtains were very dusty, and the windows looked never been cleaned. Bathroom mirror was not cleaned either. The small balcony was not cleaned and the table and two chairs in the balcony was extremely dirty. The living room seatings are very uncomfortable to sit and relax as it is designed only for sleeping. The pillows were very lumpy and uncomfortable to sleep on. This was a working holiday, so the internet and the speed were very important. Upon arriving NO INTERNET. After speaking with the host, we realised that the cables for the internet was not working, and they sent us new cables. After attaching the cables, we found the internet is very slow. It was 19mg up and down (if you moved to the window) not as 100mg up and down as advertised. So was creating problems for our work. When we arrived, the weather was cold in the nigh and the morning. We couldn’t get the AC to work. Once again spoke to the host, who told us that he tried to get the AC fixed, however the whole unit need to be replaced. He already knew this, however kept advertised as there is AC. There were no Duvets to keep us warm. It took three days for the duvet and a small heater to be delivered. By that time the weather was improving. Two cleaners came in and arranged the duvets and gave us a small heater. Also, when leaving one of them has urinated in the BIDET, NOT THE TOILET !!!!!! and left without cleaning after Ultimate decision was made to cut short our stay when the lift got broken down as well. We were without a lift on the third floor for 5 days and upon leaving the lift was still broken down .. When we informed our early departure and reasons to the host his response was “I AM SORRY FOR THE INCONVINENT, THERE IS NOT MUCH I CAN DO TO CHANGE THAT. Dear Aura Vilanova, If you cannot change much of the situation then do not advertise what is not there. Due to false advertising, you may entice people but at the same time you ruin their holidays. We are hardworking people and must save our money for holidays. What we paid for two people was quite expensive and not worth the money. We would whole heatedly WOULD NOT recommend a stay at this apartment. This apartment is a very good example of PICTURES ARE DECEIVING, AND FALSE ADVERTISING. Thank you for reading,

GOOD - The location of the apartment, it is near Petrin Tower. BAD: - There are garbage bins which are almost always full, in front of the entrance to the building. - There were visits from real-estate agent (in order to sell the apartment) 2 times a week (the real-estate agent didn’t behave correctly, even said that he has the right to do this, although according to the law, the owner has a right to check the apartment once a month) - There was mold in the rooms. - The floor and the bed were cracking. - The mattresses were dirty. We bought new ones and we left them. - The oven didn’t work. - The energy level is very low.

The apartment itself is nicely done.

Landlord was good but the property was tired and a lot of noise from other people in the complex

The apartment is big and well-equipped for a long-stay, though there is no washing machine and the interior is a bit aged. Location directly on the strip is good for those who don't bother about the street noise. The building, however, is quite grubby and has apparently seen far better days. The host is responsive and very cooperative.

The apartment is in the centre, quite spacious, though all the furniture and the linen were rather old and worn. Besides , some kitchen equipment wasn't working, the shabby windows were risky to open, heating was possible only by air-conditioners, and there were some problems with water heating - the boiler (though we didn't find it in the apartment but I guess the water was heated by a boiler) was if insufficient capacity to let more than 1 person to take shower, the other had to wait until it's heated again. I can't say the host was very friendly but not hostile at the same time.

The apartment was OK. Not worth 1800 a month apartments in Vienna are half that for this size even furnished I found this landlord was not only scamming me (a single mother from USA trying to start a life in Vienna.) But also that he was cruel. When the rent was late though I gave him a heads up about my situation, he sent threatening messages and changed the thermostat from his phone app to freezing then to scolding hot. Making my son and I sick. Wouldn't recommend anyone rent from him ever. Not only Is he Greedy and charging 2x what it should be, but also his cruel, dangerous behavior.

Me and my friend Jakub were in this apartment, we were working in Prague airport and we choose this apartment because location of the apartment was the only good thing about it. First of all apartment was very smelly and humidity was very high, living in that apartment in winter season was almost impossible because it was freezing. Owner said that we need to pat extra money because of the spending too much electricity and gas, the problem was that the heater was not properly set up. Owner said that we change settings, which was not truth. We need to pay 340 € more and owner didn’t propose any agreement. We found that wasn’t out fault because the heater wasn’t set up properly. To clarify we paid more because of usage and apartment was still very cold. Second of all we asked for a new vacuum cleaner because one in the apartment was broken and he ordered it for us after 2 and a half of month. It’s better to find any other apartment than this one.

It's ok

Overall, I am satisfied with Michael, he was always reachable and responsive to my messages. However, he had not seen the confirmation of my reservation request and so I may have missed it, he offered me another apartment instead, fortunately for me. The biggest problem in my opinion is the very high price, which does not correspond to the expected standard. no blinds or curtains in the apartment, the only curtains around the bed were broken. One of the windows was broken and almost fell on me. I had to spend several weeks in the middle of winter with the window not closing properly. The washing machine's dryer function did not work. The furnishings were very basic, a few leaks from the bathroom sink that I was able to repair myself, and the poorly sized shower curtain, at the end of each shower, I had to wring the floor with a towel to avoid not that it's flooded. More than 1800€/month for this. I wouldn't even spend €1300 if I had to do it again... I still thank you for the service which was responsive as much as possible.

Host Wise have been excellent to deal with. They have responded quickly to any questions and communication overall has been excellent. The apartment itself was advertised as luxury accommodation. In summer that may have been so, but in winter it was cold and draughty as the french doors didn't quite shut properly and the heat pump wasn't coping. There was no double glazing. The kitchen was well equipped. The ensuite shower needs a good scrub around the bottom of the doors and in the grouting.

The apartment is as pictured, but the problem was high humidity

Overall, it's an okay choice for those seeking a straightforward urban rental, but with room for enhancement.

Small apartment, charming but badly laid out. It have a good location with a mall near. The confort is ok. Unfortunately we left the appartement 3 months before the end of the contract. The bathroom smelled the cigarette and the landlord didn't found a solution. The landlord doesn't matter of our health and our confort, it's a shame.

Good flat with everything you need. The landlord has made an effort to make this tiny basement room (so to say) into a habitable place with all amenities. For those who are light sleepers, I would warn you about the noise. There are noisy people in the tattoo parlour adjacent to the building which can get super annoying as they can party till late night. Also, the opening and closing of the main doors can also be heard and footsteps of all building residents going up and down the stairs. Plus the neighbour who lives infront seems to be some strange person who definitely stole my umbrella that was kept outside during the rainy days to dry off... xD The heater is also really old school and makes noise at night. Plus it gets cold in the room during winter months (if you are planning on booking it at that time) as it shuts off for couple of hours (probably due to load shedding). I would say it's a good place to stay for a really short stay (couple of days). Don't book it for long term.

the short lease contract has been cancelt after 6 days by mutual agreement

Communication was easy and nice. The flat is sufficient for a short stay but not in a very good state anymore. You could expect more for this high price.

Our stay was for 5 weeks. The landlord was always responsive and the front desk staff were helpful in answering questions and assisting with needs. The coffee machine stopped working and they sent a replacement. We left the keys in the apartment and Sandra drove in to provide a duplicate set on the weekend. The key to the back gate did not work to open the gate so we always had to access through the front door. Parking is sometimes an issue but we usually found a way to park either in front or on the side. A car is necessary if you want to get around since the building is at sea level and you have a mountain to climb to go up to Monument. We rented a car after 2 days from Sixt located at the roundabout by Reids The view from the apartment and large terrace is jaw dropping. The promenade along Praia Formosa provides a lovely walk in either direction toward Lido area and Funchal (through the tunnel) or to Camara de Lobos. There are restaurants and snack bars along the promenade. The apartment was not comfortable for our needs. It was bare bones in terms of furniture, bed, cookware and linens. The bed was like sleeping on a hard floor and the linens made it worse since they were rough and did not fit the bed. The pillows were a mystery to us, large, full of lumps and bumps. We both had restless sleep and woke with back aches on most days. The towels, 2 bath and 2 hand should have been retired years ago. They were old and acted more like an exfoliator for the skin instead of absorbing moisture. The kitchen was not outfitted to properly cook a small meal and most of the equipment is old and worn. The washing machine worked well and accompanied by a dryer rack to use on the terrace. We love Madeira and were fortunate to spend the Christmas and New Years Holidays on Praia Formosa. Ultimately, we were able to overlook the discomfort and enjoy the view.
