This apartment is the definition of a false economy. Situated in a neighbourhood that lacks shops, restaurants, cafes and bars, travelers arriving in the evening might be taken back by the area's industrial nature. Since we had arrived straight off a plane, we had no groceries. Luckily a 15 minute roundabout walk in the dark, in an area that represents a wasteland rather than neighbourhood, we spotted a Holiday Inn. We had dinner there.
The apartment itself was barely warm, and lacked instructions or the capability of switching on the heaters. There was no instruction manual or any kind of kit to explain the apartment or nearby amenities or services. This is not welcoming in the slightest.
Furthermore, the curtains were transparent, which was extremely uncomfortable because our particular apartment was located on the ground floor, allowing anyone to peer into the windows should they wish. It also meant street lights were apparent from the room. Not the most conducive environment for sleep.
A taxi from the nearby airport costs around 20 Euro. It costs double that to get into the city with a specific airport taxi. This underscores that saving a few euros on this apartment is lost because it's expensive to reach by taxi, and furthermore, the local Holiday Inn was not much more in price. However, a hotel offers baggage storage, better transport links, a reception desk and no doubt curtains and heating.
