I liked the location. It was in the heart of Budapest and it's center.
I booked a two bedroom appartment but I got a room with 2 beds(which one was a sofa,not a bed for a couple).
The toilet was dirty(literally had pee on the toilet seat).
The appartment had 2 tiny windows (one in the bathroom,one in the kitchen)which were too high for me to reach and had access to zero natural light.
The cleaning lady always worked too early(6am) and because the walls were paper thin I could hear everything.
Also,there is nowhere on booking that says they will withdrawn deposit money(200e).

The location of the accommodation is very good. There is a Tesco store opposite, there are restaurants nearby and it is close to monuments.
Upon payment of the payment for the accommodation, a message will be sent regarding the payment of €200 as a deposit for damage. It is returned within 7 days after departure. We have 5 days from departure and 4 days after departure I wrote to the owner when the deposit will be returned. He didn't answer. I wrote again on the 5th and he replied that it would be returned within 7 days and if I open a dispute, it will be unnecessarily prolonged. The apartment has only one window in the bathroom, and that is to the hallway of the apartment building with the stairs. The kitchen is poorly equipped. Several things are wrong and the pans are damaged.

Excellent location. Great price. We were a little nervous from other reviews about noise sensitivity but we were prepared to keep our kids sqeaks and squeals to minimum. The large seperate deposit was quite unusual compared to zero deposit on our trips 6 other bookings. But it worked out. So i would say i recommend this location for a great value. Especially great if you tour all day and just need a place to rest quiet. Maybe cook.. wash.. very safe.
Excellent shower with 6 body sprayers , Rain head and spray wand. However No shower curtain, so not usable. Entire bathroom would be soaked in a second. Hopefully a simple shower curtain will be added soon or bring your own for a much better shower experience

Location is good in terms of where you are in the city. The building that the apartment is in smells of rubbish. And the other residents do not want you there
Had to give a large deposit and when you speak to the owner about this he is rude. Kitchen is poorly equip. Information to get in to the property wasn't sent at the right time it took alot of trying before I could get this from the landlord almost 4 hours after I should of received it.

it is ideally situated near plenty of restaurants and only 5 min walk from ruined bars (my favourite) next to this is a outdoor door market. property has WiFi hot water and beds where okay.
the amount of door codes… around 4 in total. maybe a variation of a string numbers if possible,

The apartments were everything that we need, amazing location and great value for money. The host was brilliant at sorting any issues we had. We had a great stay at Whistling Rabbi
There is a crazy neighbour who comes out and shouts at you at 5pm for talking and she turns off your electricity but you just turn it back on and ignore her

the neighbors they can make something illegal like cutting the electricity current because of something like noise and if that happened you have to go by yourself to the fuse box to get the current back

great location
BE CAREFUL one apartment divided to two. very noisy if both occupied. I couldn’t sleep the whole trip. owner didn’t help. I asked to leave because it was too noisy till 4 am but owner didn’t let me leave although he knew that neighbours called police nigh after night..
also as I paid and arrived owner didn’t give me the code and asked PayPal transfer deposit of 200€. he didn’t care I was alone and cold n didn’t let me in till I arranged the surprise extra 200€. I had to ask neighbours to charge my phone to keep talking to owner. I will never take the room again just because of the owner doesn’t know how to treat tourist. and also because u hear every word saying in the other room he rents.
also, 4 nights n I got one toalate paper n no towels at all!

The location in the city center was quite convenient and practical.
The walls were thin and you could hear the noise from the neighbors.

The location was great. The main reason we booked it was because it was central. But that wasn't enough to offset all the negatives.
The apartment looks great in the photos but the experience was very different! It was not very clean, very poorly equipped, and the toilet smelled really bad.
When we arrived we found that single bed had been made up in a bedroom with no curtains and double bed in the living room. This meant that neither had any privacy, and that security lights from the courtyard were shining through the window all night. There was another bedroom with a broken bed and an incredibly cramped and dangerous looking mezzanine bed above each bedroom.
The shower was broken and hanging off the wall. I wrote to the owner about the broken items and they were quite dismissive. There were only two towels both of which were disgustingly stained, and not only were there no hand towels in the toilet or bathroom, but not a single roll of toilet paper in the whole apartment!
I wrote to the owners asking about a kettle to make tea and they replied that I should boil water in a pot if I wanted a hot drink. Not very helpful or professional.
The owners insist that you transfer a large security deposit to him after you have booked, which in my experience is not very common.

I liked NOTHING. Location is ok, central, but other than this everything is a mess!
We liked nothing! Everything was a disaster, absolutely disgusting! The room was soooo dirty that we left after the 1st night even though we paid for two nights. Of course, the owner did not want to give us back any money for the 2nd night.
About the dirt all over the place I will let the pictures speak.
I want to add the fact that despite all the "please be quiet" signs in the room next to us, with a tiny wall separator only, there was a party ongoing almost all night so besides the dirt we needed to deal with the noise as well.
Also, note that a deposit will be charged, which is quite big, like for 3-4 nights of accommodation. I think it is stated somewhere with small letters but it's easy to miss it. But that is the smallest problem anyway because I strongly advise you: DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE EVER! Even sleeping in the car could be considered a better option than this!

It was in the city centre
Dirty laundry was still in the washing mashing and there was laundry on the drying racks. There also still were dishes in the dishwasher. The place looks like someone destroyed it after the pictures. Also the tv furniture is REALY unstable and will definitely break by accident by someone renting this place soon. It’s so close to falling apart that an accidental bump will make the entire thing collapse. This made us very nervous during our stay. Us not wanting to lose our €200 deposit.

The location is quite convenient.
It was really deeply dirty apartment! Never met the same before on rented rooms! A lot of stuff are broken. But the BIGGEST YUCK - the bed has not been changed after previous visitors!!! It is unacceptable! We have a lot of photo evidence of this! It's absolutely disgusting! These apartments aren't worth the money in price! It's not worth paying for at all! Never rent this property!
