My daughter and I had one night stay. The day of departure, we booked a tour around the hotel office hours of 10-6 as we needed to leave our bags. We waited for 35 minutes at the office, until 10:35. Our tour was at 11. While waiting we sent an email and received no response. Email I received informed there would be someone there from 10:00 to 6:00 for clients who would like to leave their luggage. We ended up leaving our luggage with a couple who was able to wait longer. When we returned to leave the staff told us she arrived at 10:45. I find this not good customer service.

This “hotel” was more like a low grade hostel that hasn’t been updated in years. Everything was falling apart. Not worth the money, at all. If I could have cancelled my stay, I would’ve.

We felt the images were quite misleading for this apartment - perhaps the apartment pictured *does* exist at Inside Five, but we didn't see it. The accommodation at which we arrived was cramped, unclean, always uncomfortably warm to an extent that was honestly impressive, and provided the absolute minimum in terms of equipment for its kitchen. We had a pleasant check-in experience but received no reply to our attempts to contact the host later. We had the luxury of being able to check out a day early and felt much better having left.

There is no sign other than on the door recessed in the wall. Thankfully, a guest passed by and told us where it was located. Check-in is by code after hours. As we were traveling, we didn’t get the email telling us we needed to send a picture of our passports to get the code. We were able to do this using wifi from the front door, but it took about 5-10 minutes. Rooms are small and a bit hot, but otherwise it fit our needs.

Property had the basics- proper working shower, comfortable bed, and it was clean enough. However, many things were broken. The window was completely detached from the wall and we had to secure it ourselves. Only one of the ceilings lights turned on so our room was very dim. Hair dryer didn’t work. Microwave had a horrible smell. Walls are very thin and we could easily hear noisy upstairs guests at all hours of the night and day. No AC or heater and the room got very damp and humid while we were out. Staff was easy to contact and they did try to fix these issues as much as they could, but the room just had too many issues.

The property was well situated just outside the old town, easily walkable within 15/20minutes or tram. Only thing we found was the apartment was very dusty, and some things were broken (e.g. toilet lid, shower doors, safe) There was also building work outside which was very noisy and the other guests were noisy early in the morning. But this is just pick of luck when staying somewhere like this The host was great with communication and clear instructions on how to get our key.
