In English first. Then translated to Albanian. Në fillim në anglisht. Pastaj përkthyer në shqip. - Absolutely criminal. The host purposely misrepresented the internet speed in the ad. It is now 5 days after my departure and the listing still states 200 Mbps as the speed. The speed was actually 5-15 the vast majority of the time, sometimes just 1 or 2 Mbps, and at times inoperable for 15-60 minutes. - The host advertises this place as suitable for remote workers, but the power went out dozens of times during my one month stay, at times for over an hour. The building has serious infrastructure issues. - After 2 weeks, it became unbearable and harmful to my necessities, and I contacted her to end my 4 week lease and refund me for the remainder. This in itself would be an inconvenience from the initial agreement due to displacing me, but better than continuing to be subjected to the hardship created by her dishonesty. She refused to end the lease early or provide any refund, despite me having to relocate during the lease and pay for accomodations elsewhere. - Again, the internet speed has never tested at the speed stated in the listing, and she maintains it in the ad here. She is a crook and I do not wish anything good for her in life. - Flatio was content to allow her to keep the money for the lease despite her obvious breech of basic decency and failure to meet her own assurances. I suppose it was out of their hands. - So on this platform, I do not recommend you place your trust in a host lightly before booking your stay. Find an option other than this one. - There are also construction issues, such as a shower that floods the bathroom and pools to create mold. And the bedside counters are not properly adhered to the wall, causing a sloping ledge that isn't suitable to support even a glass of water. - The shopping center the apartment is in is largely vacant and rundown, and you have to walk quite a while to access the beach either in Golem or Durress, as the coast near the apartment isn't open to the public. - Absolutisht kriminale. Pritësi qëllimisht e keqinterpretoi shpejtësinë e internetit në reklamë. Tani kanë kaluar 5 ditë pas largimit tim dhe lista ende deklaron 200 Mbps si shpejtësi. Shpejtësia në fakt ishte 5-15 në shumicën dërrmuese të kohës, ndonjëherë vetëm 1 ose 2 Mbps, dhe ndonjëherë jofunksionale për 15-60 minuta. Pritësi e reklamon këtë vend si të përshtatshëm për punëtorët në distancë, por energjia elektrike u ndërpre dhjetëra herë gjatë qëndrimit tim njëmujor, ndonjëherë për më shumë se një orë. Ndërtesa ka probleme serioze me infrastrukturën. Pas 2 javësh, u bë e padurueshme dhe e dëmshme për nevojat e mia, dhe unë e kontaktova atë për të përfunduar kontratën time 4-javore të qirasë dhe për të më rimbursuar pjesën e mbetur. Kjo në vetvete do të ishte një shqetësim nga marrëveshja fillestare për shkak të zhvendosjes sime, por më mirë sesa të vazhdoja t'i nënshtrohesha vështirësive të krijuara nga pandershmëria e saj. Ajo refuzoi ta përfundonte kontratën e qirasë para kohe ose të më jepte ndonjë rimbursim, pavarësisht se më duhej të zhvendosesha gjatë kontratës së qirasë dhe të paguaja për akomodimin diku tjetër. Përsëri, shpejtësia e internetit nuk është testuar kurrë me shpejtësinë e deklaruar në listë, dhe ajo e mban atë në reklamën këtu. Ajo është një mashtruese dhe unë nuk i uroj asgjë të mirë në jetë. Flatio ishte e kënaqur që ajo të mbante paratë për qiranë pavarësisht shkeljes së dukshme të mirësjelljes themelore dhe dështimit për të përmbushur garancitë e saj. Mendoj se nuk ishte në duart e tyre. Pra, në këtë platformë, nuk ju rekomandoj t'i besoni lehtë një pritësi para se të rezervoni qëndrimin tuaj. Gjeni një mundësi tjetër përveç kësaj. Ka edhe probleme ndërtimi, siç është një dush që përmbyt banjën dhe pishina për të krijuar myk. Dhe banakët pranë komodinës nuk janë ngjitur siç duhet në mur, duke shkaktuar një prag të pjerrët që nuk është i përshtatshëm për të mbështetur as një gotë ujë. Qendra tregtare ku ndodhet apartamenti është kryesisht e zbrazët dhe e rrënuar, dhe duhet të ecni mjaft për të hyrë në plazh ose në Golem ose në Durres, pasi bregdeti pranë apartamentit nuk është i hapur për publikun.

Major issues with this landlord and property. - The oven did not work. - The WiFi only worked in the kitchen and was only fixed over halfway through my stay. - The drains did not function properly and was only fixed over halfway through my stay. -The bathroom door handle repeatedly broke off and was only fixed over halfway through my stay. - Landlord is very aggressive if you complain. The overall experience caused a lot of stress and upset my end. I’ve received no partial refund to reflect my experience.

The apartment was presented fraudulently. No HVAC on the ground floor so it was very cold. The heat pump on the second floor did not work from day 1. The het pump on the first floor failed after one week. Neither was repaired during our stay. There was no place to store cloths ib the 2nd floor bedroom. I purchased a shelf unit myself. The hanger rod was broken and propped up by the shelf unit I had purchased.

There were Leaks from ceiling throughout stay. There were attempts to rectify it but the issue led me to move out as it became inhabitable. However, the apartment was good in every other aspect and my concerns were promptly delt with. The property manager went out of his way to make my stay comfortable, also accommodating me with any extra utensils and essentials needed. The apartment was well stocked with cleaning supplies and simple kitchen necessities which was appreciated. Other than the leaks, which they noted was being attended to immediately (which is why I had to leave), the apartment is perfect with amazing views of the river aswell.

La casera nunca nos avisó que el ascensor estaba roto, y es un séptimo. Según ella mandó un correo a las que habíamos alquilado. Eso no fue cierto, nos enteramos pocas horas antes de poder acceder al piso. Y con un mensaje de WhatsApp. No fue capaz de mandar a nadie a ayudar a subir el equipaje que era una sola chica con varias maletas. Se ofreció pero nunca apareció. Las fotos no sé corresponden en nada con el piso. Tiene CUCARACHAS, HUMEDADES CON MUCHO HONGO, LA COCINA ESTA SUPER SUCIA Y LLENA DE GRASA Y MOHO TAMBIÉN Y DESCONCHADA LA PINTURA POR LA HUMEDAD. Según ella mantienen una estricta limpieza, totalmente mentira. Según ella todo era por las lluvias. Y esa suciedad es la que trajo cucarachas. Y por último no tiene salón, en el anuncio pone que si y no lo hay. No recomiendo para nada este alojamiento. Debería estar prohibido alquilar una vivienda en esas condiciones.

We had a mixed experience renting this home. While the owners are friendly, professional and willing to help, the circumstances we faced in this particular home was unpleasant. The photos conceal some gaps in basic livability standards. It might be ok, if you're renting for a weekend. But, anything more than a weekend, means you're making a serious compromise. 1. The layout of the home is like a train coach - the living room, room#2, kitchen, bathroom room #1, backyard. The only useful windows for light and air are in the front. This means 60% of the house has zero light or air exposure. The room#1 in the back of the house has a small window and door to the yard, but does not provide any light. 2. The bathroom has zero ventilation, so expect high humidity. The bathroom also came without curtains or any storage, so once again it was below basic living standards. 3. The hosts were nice enough to install washer and dryer, which we really appreciated. But, the laundry room is dark and dingy. We had mold all over our stuff that we had stored here. The issue might have been made worse due to the incessant storms during our stay. Even so, for us - this felt like below living standards. 4. The kitchen does not have any hood or ventilation and just a basic induction stove with 2 plates. There zero natural air or light in the kitchen. If you plan on cooking here, expect the kitchen to get damp very soon. 5. The Good part of the location is its close to lot of restaurants. On the other side, this street has numerous bars and it can get very noisy during the weekends. The hosts are great people, but the fact is the unit does come short of meeting basic living standards, if you're planning to stay for more than a weekend! LANDLORD'S REPLY: The photographs of the property available on the Flatio website show the exact layout of the house, including the stovetop and the bathroom. When renting an apartment through a platform, one must pay close attention to the type of property being chosen. Before we signed the final contract, I sent a video to the tenant so they could inspect the property and confirm they wished to proceed with the rental. The property did not have a washer-dryer, and at the tenants' request, we arranged an alternative solution so they could have a washing machine. In fact, we installed the machine in a small, dark location that had been agreed upon over the phone with the tenant. The property was clearly too small for this family's needs, and they asked us to end the tenancy without notice, which we did not accept. It is unfortunate that the review was written in this context, unfairly damaging the reputation of our property. As fotografias da casa disponíveis no site da Flatio mostram a exata configuração da casa, além de mostrarem a placa do fogão e a casa de banho. Quando se arrenda um apartamento por plataforma há que olhar com atenção para o tipo de propriedade que se está a escolher. Antes de celebrarmos o contrato definitivo, enviei um video ao inquilino para verificar a propriedade e certificar-se de que queria prosseguir com o arrendamento. A propriedade não tinha máquina de lavar e secar e, a pedido dos inquilinos, nós arranjámos uma solução de recurso para eles poderem ter máquina. Aliás, instalámos a máquina num local pequeno e escuro acordado telefonicamente com o inquilino. A casa era manifestamente pequena para as necessidades desta família e pediram-nos para terminar o arrendamento sem aviso prévio, o que nós não aceitámos. É triste que a avaliação seja feita neste contexto, prejudicando injustamente a nossa propriedade.

The apartment did not have adequate heating. Just 3 small spot heater for 3 bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room and a bathroom. The floors were freezing cold. The stove gaz burners and oven were not hooked up to the gaz bottle, so only 2 electric heating plates and a microwave oven were available. The electrical panel would trip all the time when heaters and anything else was on at the same time. I did not meet the host as he was in south america at the time.

The dog was a serious issue. It was not the same dog as in the description and barked frequently, sometimes for hours straight. For about one month it repeatedly urinated on the living room floor. While this was no longer an issue toward the end of the stay, it significantly affected the overall experience. The mattress was worn out and visibly stained, which made sleeping uncomfortable. Only one bedsheet was provided. The shared living area was not actually shared. I was allowed to use it for breakfast when the host was at work, and since we left around the same time this was barely possible. In the evenings the door was closed, so it was clearly not a common area as described. The dishwasher did not work properly. The guest policy was changed compared to what was stated in the contract. According to the booking, guests were allowed for three days free of charge per month. The host only allowed about half of that and demanded 10 euros per night, which I refused. Positive aspects were the cleaning every two weeks, a fully functional washing machine, and a very good location. LANDLORD'S REPLY: It is somewhat strange that if the stay was so unsatisfactory, why would the guest stay here for four whole months? I would therefore like to comment on the points in the review.  Dog: The dog lives in the apartment and this is stated in the offer. He is well-behaved and clean. The offer is suitable for those who like dogs or at least don’t mind them. Living room:  It is not a rule that it is automatically shared, as stated in the offer as well. Dishwasher: The dishwasher was replaced with a brand new one during the guest’s stay. Visits of the guest friends: The guest was visited by her friends for free several times. However, I believe it is good manners to respect the host’s privacy. Room: The room is in standard condition and has never been complained about. I believe that guest would slept much better if she kept her room tidy. The room was thoroughly cleaned after the guest’s departure.

Host was not responding on period of the whole 5 month

This was quite the nightmare experience, the word I have ever add in a temporal housing. First of all the violation of all flatio terms from the beginning. The host requested a deposit, for which I had to insist it goes against the platform agreements and had me pay a late check-in fee of 50€ that was not stated in the listing. I received a faulty apartment, with the lock of the door broken and a Wifi network that never worked (he says that it is because it's "forbidden" to download big files), I had to use my mobile data plan for the entire stay. But the worst is yet to come, one day we stopped having water supply on the entire building, this makes the whole building "uninhabitable" according to Spanish law. The host insisted that it will be resolved quickly and provided bottles of water. I lived like this for a week, until I called the water company here in Valencia (Global Onum) and they told me that the building doesn't have any contract with them. Since that means that the issue could last for weeks or even months I rushed to book an Airbnb and left the apartment. The host even has the indecency of demand me to clean the apartment with the bottles of water, like it is completely Ok to have to live without water supply like if it where a jungle or a deserted island. Avoid completely, don't risk living a similar nightmare experience.

I honestly don’t know what was worse: the apartment itself or the landlady. This place was an absolute nightmare, and I strongly advise anyone reading this to stay away at all costs. Let’s start with the apartment. The photos are pure deception and have nothing to do with reality. The room is handed over in whatever filthy state the previous tenant left it in. The kitchen, bathroom, and toilet are dirty and rancid. When I moved in, there was already mold behind the sink, which says everything about the level of care taken here. The refrigerator randomly leaks water, leaving puddles on the floor. The shower head is broken, spraying water in all directions except where it should. There is no mailbox, no doorbell, and no nameplates — basic things you would expect in any functional apartment. The room door has a glass window, meaning zero privacy unless you cover it yourself. Even after insulating the door with special materials, the soundproofing is still completely inadequate: you can clearly hear the toilet flushing and every single movement in the kitchen. Relaxing in your own room is simply impossible. Heating deserves its own special mention. The regulator in the room is rusted and stuck, so you cannot control the temperature. The only way to regulate heating is via the bathroom, which means either you sweat like crazy, your roommates freeze, or you sleep with the heating blasting and the windows wide open. There is no reasonable middle ground. And these are just the problems with the apartment itself. Now to the landlady — or rather, the complete absence of any real landlord responsibility. I repeatedly tried to report these issues. The messages are read, but responses come extremely late, if at all. Communication is a disaster. She barely understands English and is apparently unable (or unwilling) to use a translator, which makes the delays even more absurd. On October 15, I sent a long, detailed message listing all the defects. After weeks of following up and practically begging, I finally managed to speak to her on November 14. She openly admitted that she couldn’t even remember the last time she had seen the apartment in person. I was then promised that by the end of November the following would be fixed: a new toilet and floor, a repaired refrigerator, a new bathroom floor and bathtub, a mailbox with keys and nameplate, and a replaced heating regulator. I am writing this at the end of January. Unsurprisingly, almost nothing has happened. The toilet was eventually repaired, and I was told the bathroom would be next — but at this point, promises are meaningless. You can safely assume that every promise will be delayed by at least two to three months, if it happens at all. To make things even worse, the landlady doesn’t even live in Prague. When something finally starts moving after endless delays, you as the tenant are expected to chase third parties yourself. P.S.: Just to be clear about the noise situation: both current roommates have children who temporarily live in the apartment, meaning it is rarely occupied by only three adults. If you think this will be a quiet or peaceful place to live — think again.

Tentativo di scam.

I stayed in this property during winter and had to leave early due to serious heating and power issues. The house was cold, damp, and not fit for remote work or even basic comfort. Heating was first provided via a faulty oil heater, then replaced with small 300W infrared panels — which were wholly inadequate and then a faulty gas heater. Power outages occurred when using essentials like a heater or even a kettle. Warm water was unreliable, and the humidity was so high it risked damage to my electronics. When I raised concerns, the landlord eventually suggested I should purchase a new gas heater myself — instead of taking responsibility for providing a habitable space. I became ill from the conditions and had to move out. After platform intervention, I received only a partial refund — and no compensation for the time spent in unsafe, unlivable conditions. Be cautious. Make sure major upgrades have been made and clear accountability is in place. Winter tenants especially: don’t rely on assumptions — ask for proof that heating and electricity are truly functional.

El propietario no tiene cuidado con los inquilinos que acepta. Tuve muchos problemas con un grupo de inquilinos hombres que no sabían español (ni inglés), dejaban todo sucio y hasta me golpeaban la puerta a media noche. Intenté solucionar el tema con el propietario, pero no se logró nada. Los problemas continuaron. Preferí irme a la casa de amigos a pasar allá los fines de semana. Cuando pedí al propietario que finalicemos el contrato de mutuo acuerdo, por lo problemas, no accedió y tuve que irme a pesar de seguir pagando, ya que la verdad estaba muy temerosa por los inquilinos. Y esto fue desde el primer día que llegaron. Incluso el primer día lque llegaron también llegó la policía a verificar quienes eran y donde vivían, lo que también me asustó. LANDLORD'S REPLY: Following my review, this guest with outstanding debt wrote a revenge review. Following legal action from AXA, this guest paid the rent. Happy end ? No. Because significant delay and extra admin for no reason. Thanks goes to Flatio and AXA for their dedicated support.

Just a bad experience to put behind me, I would not go back to this place even if it was free, in fact I might pay to not have to go back.

Unfortunately, I had a very bad experience with this apartment. There was mold on the walls, dirty dishes, a broken coffee machine, dirty windows with bird droppings on the sills, and months-old dust and cobwebs behind the bed. The wi-fi didn’t work, and both the shower and sink drains were clogged. Although I asked the landlady to arrange cleaning and repairs, she said the cleaner was unavailable, and despite claiming she contacted other services, nothing changed for three days. She admitted the apartment was neglected and needed cleaning, but still didn’t arrange it. She also accused me of pressuring her to move in earlier, even though she had asked for an extra day to prepare the flat — which I agreed to — yet the apartment was still in terrible condition. Her only solution was that I leave early, which she considered fair. I did not, as the apartment was too dirty to work, sleep, or live in. I had to leave and find another place. Very unpleasant experience — I do not recommend this apartment. LANDLORD'S REPLY: Byt byl nájemnici předán osobně při nastěhování a v daný moment nebyly vzneseny žádné výhrady. Připomínky začaly přicházet až s odstupem času. Na každou z nich jsem reagovala bezodkladně. Kontaktovala jsem techniky na internet, objednala nový kávovar, řešila možnost úklidu a opakovaně komunikovala s poskytovateli služeb. O všech krocích byla nájemnice průběžně informována. Vzhledem k tomu, že některé požadavky nebylo možné vyřešit okamžitě (zejména z důvodu dostupnosti externích služeb), nabídla jsem férové řešení formou předčasného ukončení pobytu. Toto řešení bylo nakonec realizováno dohodou přes platformu Flatio a s částečným vrácením nájemného, se kterým nájemnice souhlasila. Je mi líto, že pobyt nesplnil očekávání nájemnice, nicméně z mé dlouhodobé zkušenosti i historie hodnocení na Flatio (dlouhodobě 5/5) je zřejmé, že se jednalo o mimořádnou a nestandardní situaci, kdy očekávání a standardy nebyly na obou stranách v souladu. Byt byl po odjezdu převzat zpět bez jakýchkoliv dalších připomínek a spolupráce byla oficiálně uzavřena dle pravidel platformy. Zároveň bych ráda doplnila, že veškeré nahlášené záležitosti byly po odjezdu nájemnice vyřešeny. Byt je nyní po generálním úklidu, s plně funkčním internetem, odpady i novým vybavením a je připraven v plném standardu pro další hosty.

I moved here for a six month let. The host did not give me a chance to view the flat before I moved in, saying there were guests there. When I arrived I found a live cockroach in the kitchen sink. The frid,ge was unplugged, leaking onto a wet towel underneath, and had a foul smell which had permeated all the flat. The flat was old and decrepid. There was clutter and old cheap furniture everywhere, so hardly any space to store my items and furniture. There were bedbugs in the bed. I moved out the next day. I moved my possessions out the day after. The host refused to refund the rent I paid from when I moved everything out on the 3rd of October until the 31st. They are a scam. I've had to get my bank involved. I can't imagine anyone staying there even for a short holiday.

We arrived on the first day with an 8-month reservation, only to be told by the owner that we had to leave because he was planning to sell the apartment. We were forced to look for another place at the last minute, which was extremely stressful and unprofessional. The kitchen had very few utensils, and most of them were dirty from previous guests. The apartment is very dark, most of the light bulbs don’t work, and overall it was not clean. The closets were full of the owner’s boxes and bags, leaving almost no space for us. The apartment is advertised as having a sofa bed, but there is a sign saying that it cannot be used because it breaks easily and that we would have to pay €800 if it broke. Also, the m

Terrible experience. I booked and paid for a T1 apartment (65 m²). On the day of our arrival, the phone number listed in the contract was unavailable, and the manager stopped responding in the chat. We arrived and ended up spending four hours outside waiting. During that time, we managed to find another phone number for the manager, but when we finally reached him, he said it wasn’t his problem and claimed they didn’t work with Flatio. Thankfully, the cleaning staff noticed us, checked our documents, contacted their supervisors, and managed to find a vacant apartment for us. We’re very grateful for their help — especially since we had small children and it was already late, so finding another place would have been almost impossible. Unfortunately, the apartment we were given was much smaller and in worse condition than the one we had originally booked. The manager didn’t offer any compensation for the difference, never apologized, and made no effort to take responsibility for what happened.

Unfortunately, I did not have a pleasant stay and wanted to change my accomodation from the very first day. The owner started blaming me for minor issues and kept introducing new rules. I recommend that she clearly list all her rules on the website so potential guests can decide beforehand whether they can comply with them. Moreover, it is not acceptable to treat tenants or guests disrespectfully. From a technical standpoint, the lock on my door was faulty, and I was once locked out because of it. Additionally, the rug in the room caused me an allergy. When I asked for a vacuum cleaner to clean it, the owner refused. Overall, I do not recommend staying at her place.

Flatio’s service was excellent — 10/10 for their professionalism and responsiveness. Unfortunately, my experience with host Emma Cano was very disappointing. Key amenities such as the mobile AC, printer, and scanner were not provided as advertised. The host frequently changed house rules, limited kitchen access, and spoke to tenants in a disrespectful manner. Despite trying to comply and communicate, the environment became uncomfortable. I strongly recommend Flatio, but do not recommend this particular host or property.

V bytě bylo nevyhovující vybavení,v původnim zanedbaném stavu. Také špinavo. Gauč byl flekatý a nevyčištěný,prasklá postranice u ostele, kuchyňská linka s lemem špíny kolem umyvadla a s rozbitým šuplíkem,bez mikrovlnky, kývací zmožený konf.stoleček, Prach na zásuvkách a vypinačích,nesvitolo velké světlo v koupelně a nešlo topení. Byla jen prikrývka pro dva,ale spala jsem na gauči, postel je malá. Tedy chyběla další přikrývka. Paní přinesla baterie do ovládáni topení a žárovku,ale to není moje práce davat do lampy žarovku. Zrušen pobyt a nikomu tohle nedoporučím.

The apartment was advertised as 60 m², but in reality, it’s about half that size. During my stay, there was extremely loud heavy-duty construction nearby — the noise and vibration from the equipment were constant on weekdays and made it difficult to stay in during the day. On the positive side, the unit itself is newly renovated and in good condition. It includes a small bedroom, a very compact bathroom, and a functional kitchen. Overall, it’s suitable for a maximum of two people, but be aware of the size discrepancy and potential construction noise.

Terrible experience. The house had hot water lasting no more than 3 minutes. The host entered the house without notice and was uncooperative. Every day there was a new problem. The toilet leaked multiple times. We were supposed to stay there for 3 months, and we managed to shorten it to one month — but after just the first week, with only 3 minutes of hot water per day, we had no choice but to move to another place. We tried to reach at least a mutual agreement to pay only for the first 7 nights since we couldn’t even take a proper hot shower, but the host kept denying the water issue and blaming us instead. We are not the first people to have this experience — I have NEVER had any problems with a house or a rental before, but with Radka I did. You can find more reviews on other rental platforms — I strongly recommend checking there.The owner will probably try to justify herself, but when negative reviews start piling up, maybe it’s time to ask a couple of questions.
