Nous avons ete tres bien recues. Appartement agreable pour 2 personnes. Tres bon services. Tres complet pour la vaisselle et les draps et serviettes. L'entree de l'immeuble meriterait d'etre raffraichit. Les 2 chambres sont trop exigues. L'appartement est tres bien situes et pret des transports publics. Possibilites d'aller a pied faire les visites. En regle generale nous avons ete tres satisfaites.
Stayed here for the Formula 1. Have been to Budapest for a short winter break and the hotel was far from all the sights, this property is in the best location for seeing everything and on the beautiful Andressy Avenue. The Italian across from the property was excellent, but if wanting to cook in the apartment it has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. Would definitely choose to stay here on my next visit.
The apartment was very comfortable and the location was right in the heart of Budapest. It was very warm when we were there, and the air conditioning kept the apartment comfortable. Public transportation to anywhere in the city was very close to the apartment, and we were able to navigate easily. Just a note: there are definitely two bathrooms, but only one toilet. If youâre traveling with more than two people, this could be challenging. All in all, we were very comfortable in the apartment.
We visited Budapest for the formula one and had a beautiful stay! Claudios apartment is located in a fabulous area central to lots of beautiful food and drink places. It was closely located to a metro stop and bus stop. The checkin process was easy and we were left with all the information needed to enjoy the apartment.
The facilities were exactly as described however the only downside was the lack of A/C in the main bedroom which was definitely needed in the 35degree heat!! Other than this I cannot fault the stay and had the perfect time. We would definitely look to stay in Claudios apartment again next time we visit Budapest!!
Had a great stay in this super central apartment. Location could not have been better. There was some electrical maintenance taking place in the building and construction work, but this had absolutely no impact on our stay and noise levels were minimal from all sides despite being right in the centre of town on the main street. The flat was lovely and clean and well kitted out. The shower was a little awkward but other than that there was nothing to complain about. The host was also very accommodating of with check in and check out and was super helpful with our transportation and providing relevant information. Great city and great apartment.
Das Haus ist sehr zentral gelegen. Zu FuĂ erreicht man viele SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten. Die Wohnung ist modern eingerichtet und war fĂŒr uns perfekt. Alles gepflegt. Ein bisschen hat uns eine Kaffeemaschine gefehlt.
Ăber den Hausflur, der noch renoviert werden muss sehen wir gerne hinweg auch weil Claudio ein wunderbarer Gastgeber war. Alles war bestens organisiert.
Claudio .. vielen Dank nochmal dafĂŒr
My family and I decided (after paying VRBO 100% advance) to leave immediately after we reached the apartment. It was quite a setback, financially, mentally & physically but despite that, we decided that we would not stay there & ruin our first time Budapest experience. Where you stay while on holiday is an integral part of the holiday & since we didnât feel entirely safe in the building, so we took the hard call and told the owner that we didnât want to stay. He refunded 50% of the fee but the deposit is still pending (and so is the fee paid to VRBO.
Now let me put things in perspective because the apartment may work for other travelers who donât care about the things that family travelers would.
The positives:
This apartment is located in a really great location - very close to the station, the airport bus shuttle, the shopping & everything else. The apartment is neat, with all modern fittings and comforts.
The negatives:
The building feels like a low cost, run down tenement from inside and each floor is dark, dirty & dingy. You walk in from the bright main road into a dark passageway in the building which is lined with large trash cans. The tiny elevator is at the end of the passage where there are more large trash cans. The elevator is tiny and fits only 3 slim people or 2 people + 1 bag or 1 person with 2 bags only. Yes, itâs that tiny.
The apartment has no view whatsoever and no privacy either. The blinds need to be drawn at all times because it faces into another apartment building and also because of the sunlight. There are 2 bathrooms but only 1 of those has a WC.
There are maybe 6-7 tiny apartments on the floor and the entry to this apartment is strange. There is an iron security door with a grill that is shared by 3 apartments makes you feel like itâs not a very safe apartment complex. (The guy who came for the handover told me that I needed to keep this door locked maybe 10 times in the conversation).
Overall, this was an exceedingly bad experience & I feel cheated. Had the site shown images of the pathway or the elevator area, I wouldnât have booked this apartment.
Even the reviews donât seem trustworthy. Since each & every one of those were so positive, my guess is: only the best ones make it to the site; the bad ones donât. VRBO has not been helpful - they claim that theyâre only âfacilitatorsâ. Moreover, theyâre refusing to refund even their own commission for a stay that never took place after telling me that they would
Our welcome and tour around the property was great, the living area is very well spaced and it had everything we needed for ourselves and our 4 year old. Although the dishwasher wasn't working, we were advised of this in advance and it didn't detract from our stay. Although being so near Deak Ferenc Ter was lovely, as lots of people relax in the park in the evening, it could also be quite noisy at times, with revellers in the night, and deliveries and building work in the early morning. We woke with the dawn most mornings as the blinds let in a fair amount of the morning sun, so if travelling with a small child, I would recommend taking a travel blackout blind. The M1 metro was right outside, making it very easy to get around the city, though the walk up Andrassy Utca was also very pleasant.
This is a classy apartment in an old building. It is easy to be put off by the entry way, but the apartment has been nicely refurbished. Someone was there when we arrived and showed us everything. It is in the heart of Budapest, so everything is within an easy distance. It is a big city, so can be noisy, including late night revellers. Public transportation is right outside the front door. The restaurants are plentiful and reasonable. The owner was responsive to all our inquiries, and check out was prompt and exactly when we asked for it. There is a (small) elevator. The kitchen is well equipped. The coffee maker is for espresso, but there is a funnel which we used to make drip coffee. Given the opportunity, we would gladly return to Budapest and stay in this apartment.
The apartment was very comfortable and easily accommodated four adults.
The location was perfect for first time visitors to Budapest, with access to two metro stations within 5 minutes walking distance. Claudio was an extremely congenial host, corresponding with us frequently and speedily regarding our questions, many of which had nothing to do with the rental. He even arranged private transportation from the airport to the apartment. His two colleagues, Luca and Salvatore were equally helpful with check in and out procedures.
