Extreme contrasts
Our main reason to rent this house was for our separated family to spend time together. And that was achieved but far not as comfortable as was expected.
There are 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, but NO living room, none. Only small kitchen and one place to seat is by the dining table (owners did add enough chairs around it per my request). Bedrooms lack furniture, just one big bedroom had a dresser. Some light bulbs were out ( I guess to save money). Cleaning supplies were openly piled on the floor by washing machine in the basement.
This house is pretty close to Balat - nice touristy area, but you have get out of slums first because house has been built in the middle of very poor and dirty neighborhood with piled trash on street and in the alley, stray dogs and cats right there...and children being sent to us to beg for money.
When I asked to have our trash removed from the house, I was offered to pay 50 euros for cleaning, so we collected 7 bags mainly with empty water bottles in the court yard...and they were never removed while we were there. We didn't get Welcomed as was promised, when we arrived, there was only non English speaking cleaning person who handed me the key silently and walked out.
By day 4 we had lots of ants on the first floor, which we dutifully cleaned
Only one key was provided for the whole group, which is odd.
We've used Turkish bath once
I'd not stay there again, but rent 4 rooms in a hotel in better neighborhood
for the same amount of money.

House was clean but not nice neighborhood. Bathroom faucet was leaking. The oven did not work. We are staying there for 10 days without any cleaning or changing covers sheets. She responded to message very late. Wifi is very slow . When uber came to pick up to airport, he told us such scary neighborhood. No shampoo or body wash. No sofa or comfortable chair inside the house. leaving room very small and TV is in one bedroom. In generał not too bad but not worth it with the price.
