This apartment is in a good location. Unfortunately the kitchen was not adequately supplied. Listed amenities included an oven and prior to booking we messaged the host to confirm it had an oven. Upon arrival we learned it did not, so we messaged the host and reminded him of our email confirmation. Sadly his initial response was , âsorryâ, but after a rude and unpleasant email exchange, he agreed to bring over a toaster oven.The kitchen had additional problems. Not all the pots worked on the induction stove. The fry pan was burned in the center and destroyed anything cooked in it. There were no hot pads. The knives were very dull and dangerous to use. The electric tea pot was full of scale deposits and chunks of scale would pour into our cups. We ended up purchasing several items that should have been in an advertised âkitchenâ. The list of amenities also included a âhot tubâ which we could not locate.There were not enough hangers, no vacuum was supplied, and the only broom was broken making it difficult to clean up the apartment. For travelers not needing an adequately supplied kitchen this apartment may be fine and is situated nicely close to many historical sites.
