This apartment was all that it said it would be. It was within walking distance to shops, restaurants and the harbour. It was clean and had everything we needed. The hosts were easy to get a hold of.

Low Overall Rating Due To Musty/Mold Odor Throughout Apartment
On arrival, the first thing we noticed was that the entire apartment was consumed by an overwhelming musty/moldy smell. It seemed that this was coming from the basement/bathroom area. The backyard of unit also had the very same odor. We wondered if it is due to dampness. We hoped by airing the unit out, this would help, but didn’t feel safe leaving windows open when we weren’t there, or while sleeping. We stayed Friday evening and Saturday. Airing when we could, did not help. The smell was horrible, the entire time we were there. It really negatively impacted our time and actually triggered an allergic reaction for me that I am still dealing with, days later. The unit itself is in an excellent location to downtown, and has lots of potential; yet isn’t as it could be. On one hand, the kitchen has a gleaming new marble floor and all updated appliances, but the furnishings like the couch, bed, bedding, and towels– are old, and worn. The floors were sticky and the area rugs are very dirty. It was noisy at night and difficult to sleep due to people passing by on the street, the bedroom right at the sidewalk, as well as we could hear the people upstairs walking about and up and down there stairs, into the early morning hours. The property owner in all communications prior to this, was prompt, helpful, and very friendly. Unfortunately when I contacted him after our stay with my concern about the air quality in the unit, he didn’t respond.
