Maria Suite

A fantastic place, with a beautiful room finished to a very high standard.

Fantastic hosts.

The view of the main train station is unusual, and the room was very quiet. The beds were comfortable too. The suite itself was lovely, but at this high price, the half-hearted maintenance was a real drawback. Some fixtures were loose, and there was dust and staining on obvious spots like the faucet. The sides had lots of suitcase scratches, some lamps flickered, the balcony door jammed, and the TV was tiny and too far from the bed to see properly. When I booked, the room was supposed to have a coffee machine, but it didn’t, and that amenity isn’t listed on the booking site now. If it weren’t for these problems, it could easily have been a five-star stay.

I’m sharing my honest opinion. The apartment is run-down, and the rooms don’t match their description. We had an unusually difficult stay, and even had to supply our own toilet paper. Two weeks before arrival, you asked us to cancel, saying there would be renovations so you could rent the rooms to someone else at a higher price. We refused to look for a new apartment on such short notice and contacted Airbnb. After Airbnb got in touch with the host, we were allowed to stay after all. When we arrived, there was no sign of renovations. I still have the chat logs, which I believe show that your claims, rather than ours, were false. We also asked the host to arrange a taxi to the airport. He said we had to pay €45 upfront, which seemed strange to us. We checked with a taxi company ourselves and were quoted a fixed price of €15. You said in your reply that nobody had to book a taxi through you. In my opinion, you gave us an inflated price to make money from it. I don’t consider you an honest host, and I definitely wouldn’t recommend this apartment.
