We spent just one hour here before deciding to find somewhere else. The rooms felt old, the main door was noisy, and the thin walls let every sound through, so there was no chance of sleeping. The balcony was shared too, meaning other guests could be right outside our room and see or hear us. The place is a shared apartment with people from other countries, which wasn't disclosed on Booking.com. We paid for a private bathroom, but it was outside the room. And if you're going to shower, you might meet someone in the hallway, which felt inappropriate and could be unsafe, especially if that person were drunk. How is a bathroom private if it's outside the room? And how is the room private if other people in the apartment can enter it at any time? The host came across as arrogant and delusional, and the place was awful. After reading other comments about her responses to people, I didn't contact her to say we were leaving. The 'palace' is nowhere near a palace, it's a disaster. She wanted payment by bank transfer to an IBAN outside Booking.com, so I didn't know whether a refund would be possible if something went wrong. I wanted to avoid dealing with her, but I'm writing this to keep others from falling for what I see as a scam. We got no refund.
