Bring your own cutlery, towels, and bedding if you stay here. The house is a mess and only just barely adequate. It might have been okay for me and my friends if we were on a tight budget and only sleeping there, but it should at least be cleaner. I’ve stayed in very cheap apartments before and can manage an old bed or a bad toilet if the place is clean and ready to use. This wasn't. I was there with two small children, and the owner was one of the most unpleasant hosts I’ve ever met. He said gas was too expensive to turn the heating up beyond 18°C, then told us to use electric heaters. When we did, the power went out twice. This seems like a place for 17 young adults on a budget who don’t care where they sleep or what they breathe in.

We were four adults and six children, and the children were crying because they couldn’t sleep there. The rooms, if you can call them that, were dirty and smelly, with signs of bedbugs. The kitchen was disgusting, the bathroom too dirty to step into, and the showers unusable. The owner took payment before we saw the rooms and gave no receipt. He disappeared, then when we called to say the conditions were unacceptable and ask for our money back so we could leave, he claimed they had checked 80% of the rooms and asked if our bed was dirty, though it was supposed to accommodate 17 people. He said we should just move to clean beds. He first said he would come by, but didn't show. After we waited half an hour and called again, he said he was sleeping. At 23:30 we had to search for other rooms, with our money gone. I’ve never seen anything like it. The facility should be closed, and I’m contacting every inspection authority I can.

There was mold on the walls, dirt everywhere, spiders, and bedbugs, with unwashed, dirty bedding. This place could put people's health and lives at risk if they stay there, and should be closed by health inspectors immediately. Watch out. The guy presses on Booking that he’ll rent a wooden house, but what’s actually there is a different brick building, dirty and uncleaned, with fungus.

The apartment was the best and cheapest option, and my dog stayed for free. There’s a kitchen too. You do need a car to get there.
