Studio Apartment – Tower Petrin

Exceptional

Perfect

What could be improved: Nothing

Would not recommend

Apartment is fine. Nothing to write home about though.

What could be improved: Check in process was ridiculous. You have to collect keys from an office across town which can not be accessed by car so you have to walk with your luggage. Staff did not respond so I was waiting on the street with my luggage for 40 mins in the heat. Tried to call a number provided several times - no answer and no return call. I thought the whole process was hard and the accommodation was not worth the money.

Good value for price.

Location was very good, close to all attractions. It was nice, comfortable and warm in appartment when outside was -13 degrees and snow.

What could be improved: TV wasn't working and handwritten instructions how to use it weren't correct. We expected better hygiene. Kettle was dirty and cups next to bed dusty.

Good

Location

What could be improved: Shower was leaking into the bottom floor. Got an angry neighbour have a go at me

Passable

Location is perfect.

What could be improved: The place is far more worn down than I expected. Walls need cleaning and a fresh paint.

The accommodation made my holidays unpleasant

Location was good. Also the fact that I had access to excessive towels and bedsheets was good.

What could be improved: As a frequent traveller, I have to admit this comment is making me uncomfortable; since it’s the first time that I am rating a property less than 8. Nevertheless, I believe it is my duty to be honest toward future travellers.
I stayed 6 nights (Aug 2022) in this flat. From the pictures, I had got the impression that I would be staying in a recently renovated and modern flat. Unfortunately, the reality was far from it; especially bathroom. Entering the flat was like an immediate slap to my face.
There are many downsides from which I write the ones that made my stay extremely uneasy.
Mold:
Bathroom walls and floor are renovated; though the smell of mold is extremely strong. I had to keep the bathroom door and flat windows open all the time so that the flat would be liveable (I can guess some people might not have as sensitive nose as I do, still I believe it has to be mentioned). For the reference, one can see the picture of bathroom curtain, which is white at the top, but the rest of the curtain is orange because of the mold. From the property picture it is clear that original color of the curtain has been fully white from top to bottom.
Too weary:
Shower holder bar was rusty and could not be adjusted. As a result, having water on the bathroom floor is inevitable every time that one takes a shower; no matter how hard one tries.
Everything in the flat seems rather old and weary. For example the washing machine added small dark stains to my white clothes (probably to all my clothes, but white ones were easily visible).
Key pick up:
The property info reads that check in is possible 2pm-00:00 (midnight). What it does NOT read is that key pick up point is 20 min walking distance (1.6 km) in old town. It might be fun for a backpacker to wander around in narrow streets of old town to find the spot and then continue to the flat. However, I had 2 big bags (not easy on cobblestones streets of old town); I had to take a taxi from key pick up point to the property.

Key pick-up was an adventure. Apartment was ok.

Location of apartment is good, however the "bed" was a couch with a topper. Very uncomfortable, The apartment itself was quiet, but tiny. Fridge, bathroom and windows were fine.

What could be improved: Once we arrived in the inner city for the key pick-up, there was no key in the safe and it took us 3 phone calls to reach someone. Aferwards it was another trip of 10 minutes to the location. Besides the key pick-up, the apartment was fine.
