  : Great apartment with really low inside temperature (20 degrees when outside it was 35...). Partially on top of rock, so that temperature is expected to be constant all year long. Kitchen contained everything we needed.Apartment was clean and comfortable. Would definitely check availability here again if we would like to stay in the surroundings.
  : First day had a moist smell in the bedroom, which fortunately went away on the nights after. Front door key is only one and we kept it in the original key locker outside in case the door would close accidentally when you're outside. A door handle instead of a door locker could fix this issue easily. In the terrace is a great sitting area, but the beautiful view is being withheld because of just too large bushes. Could have been even better :-)

  : we liked that the property was walking distance to the Bastei bridge. however, it was not as close as it is referred to by the host. we liked that the property was walking distance to the river and ferry.
  : -the host was not clear about the amenities from the start. pack food, coffee/tea and all toiletries one might need for at-least one night or more! the nearest grocery store is in the next town. there is however a small bodega type store 5/10 minutes walking distance. and the opening hours were not clear, timely with our stay! had we known this ahead of time we would have not stayed here. as the only means of food we could get was at a restaurant. if that is what you like, then that is fine! -if you come by foot, as we were, then prepare to walk 15 minutes to the property from the ferry. it is all uphill. so with our luggage that was a big deal! -the host/booking.com was also unclear about the means of payment. at the time of booking this property, the means of payment was cash upon arrival. this is not the case! we were told short upon arrival that we had to do a bank transfer, or lose our reservation. had we known this during booking, that would have gone smoother. -the sofa-bed is a possibility for one guest, and did not have any sheets or bedding available.-the bathroom was nice, and clean. however it didn't have a plug for a bath. -the air-cooling/filtering system was placed in the bathroom and was one that constantly turned itself on every 15 minutes or so. not great enough though after a long/hot shower. the room stayed moist and would travel into the bedroom. -when trying to reach out to the host, we were met with complicated communication. and felt uncomfortable asking anything, as we were met with a non friendly attitude. example: when asked about the food/toiletries, we were told to then not stay in an appartement but in a hotel next time. the other apartments we stayed at during the same vacation, did have these things available, and were therefor confused by the lack of information before coming to this property.
