Orient Express Pressburg - by ZAŽI

Der perfekte Ort, um Bratislava mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln gut zu erkunden. Positive: Der Kontakt wegen der Schlüsselübergabe war völlig unkompliziert und sehr nett. Die Wohnung war sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und das Bad und die Dusche waren riesig. Wir lernten die Lage der Wohnung mit jedem Tag mehr zu schätzen. Denn durch die Nähe zum Bahnhof konnten wir mit Bus und Bahn alles sehr gut und sehr schnell erreichen. Zum Frühstück waren wir jeden Tag im Punch gewesen - das perfekte Frühstück, um in den Tag in Bratislava zu starten. Zum Abendbrot waren wir jeden Tag im Café Restaurant Michaela gewesen. Beides hatte uns auf Anhieb gut gefallen, so dass wir nichts anderes ausprobiert hatten, obwohl es weitere Cafés und Restaurants fussläufig gab.

Schöne Wohnung in guter Lage Positive: Tolle Lage, große Wohnung. Negative: Schlüsselübergabe umständlich. Teilweise nicht so sauber, Bettwäsche nicht ausreichend. Ein bißchen mehr Pflege, kleinere Renovierungsarbeiten sowie bessere Infos und die Wohnung wäre TOP!

Sehr empfehlenswert

Positive: The location to the train station. The size of the apartment and the modern facilities. Negative: The entrance hall and stairs/lift were very dated and didn’t reflect the beautiful property.

Unsafe, dingy, disgusting hole Negative: Check in was chaotic - was told the location of a key box, but no code. Had to call several times before anyone answered, then was told the address, but not what floor, or which side of the building (which has 2 seperate staircase). . We arrived in the evening, and had to use our phones as lights to get up the stairwell, as there were no lights beyond the first floor. It's a concrete building in poor condition in a pretty edgy area, so was a scary experience. When we eventually got into the apartment after another phonecall (thankfully answered this time), the place was disgusting. There was a horrible, musty smell throughout the place, the bedrooms were grim, the light switch in the main bedroom was broken, and there were some battery fairy lights hanging from the light fitting instead. The sofa in the living area was dirty and old (and I think that was some of the source of the smell). None of us wanted to sit on the horrible sofa, or be in the place at all, so we left immediately and booked into a hotel. This place is charging hotel prices for a dingy hole, and shouldn't be allowed on booking.com. We are a family of experienced travellers, who are also fortunate enough to be able to say "let's just get out of here and lose the cash", which saved our experience in Bratislava. If I were a solo traveller who couldn't afford to go somewhere else, that would have been a very different story, as I would have been spending some very unsafe and unhealthy times here. I don't think I'll be using booking.com again, as there doesn't seem to be any regulation of listings.
