Prater Residence

This is a very nice place for families or groups who want to stay in the same suite but not in the same room. The apartment was clean and modern, the staff were very helpful and i really appreciated the online check in. But of course its main advantage is the location - it's really close to the city centre so it's a steal at this price.

In general I did like my stay here very well. The apartment was really spacious and still not that expensive and had most things we needed. Also Szandra, the host, was super friendly and ready to help with any problem we had. Plus the location is literally perfect. There's a mall directly across the street, a stubway station nearby and if you use the public transportation you can get to all the popular places within half an hour. The only thing I could criticize is the barely existing kitchen equipment. I don't know who was responsible for the kitchen but I do know that it definitely couldn't have been a cook. There are literally only pots, plates and cutlery. I would really wish to also have some bowls, a grater and a knife sharpener since the knives were not even sharp enough to properly cut a tomato. Ah and an oven and a freezer would be nice as well. But I guess no accommodation can be perfect and I still did enjoy my stay in Budapest a lot and everything else was great, I just had to get kinda creative when it came to cooking. Plus there are lots of nice cafés and restaurants nearby anyway

What can I say… On the surface, the apartment looks fine – it has 3 bedrooms with 6 single beds, was clean and tidy, provided towels and free Wi-Fi, and had one air conditioner in the living room. The location is convenient, close to the city and main roads. However, everything was overshadowed by the terrible host – with extremely poor communication, unreliable, not trustworthy, and not responsible. Even if this was a 5-star stay, being managed by this host made it one of the worst experiences I’ve had. The main reason I booked this property was because it advertised free parking, which is rare in Budapest. Months before arrival, I messaged the host via Agoda: “I’d like to stay on a high floor, I’d like a large bed, can I park one car please? We’ll be arriving from Lake Balaton. Please inform if early check-in is possible. Thanks.” No reply. While at Lake Balaton, I emailed again on Thursday asking about early check-in. No reply. I then sent another message via Agoda asking about check-in and parking. Still no reply. Finally, at 14:51 on the day of check-in (just before 3pm), I received an email explaining how to check in – but nothing about parking. I arrived at 15:20 with my fam
