Please note that heating is electric (space heaters), with guests responsible for the evenly splitting the heating consumption fee on a monthly basis. The apartment has been partially renovated after the earthquake, with minor wall cracks that in no way compromise the comfort of living.

With 4-meter ceilings providing an airy ambiance, room-darkening shades, fire extinguishers, self-check in flexible method, board games, and a selection of books, my home ensures a delightful stay. Revel in the warmth of oak parquet flooring and admire 19th-century Italian mosaic tiles in the hallway. The antique/modern fully equipped kitchen and a separated toilet add to the convenience and privacy of your stay.

Close to almost all faculties, a supermarket and a drugstore across the street, pharmacies, a second-hand shop, Museum of Broken Relationships and The Museum of Illusions pretty much across the street, playful and popular hostel with regular pool parties close by, etc.

Suitable applicants: 2-month rent minimum between May and September, 4 months between September and May, zero-refund cancellation policy, and willingness for their stay to be registered at the authorities in addition to signing a contract. Compliance with flat rules is obligatory, otherwise the contract will be cancelled (by booking you commit to respecting the house rules found here: https://ilica73qa.wordpress.com/). Deposit is paid in the amount of one calendar month’s rent on the day of the arrival alongside the rest of the first month’s rent. The deposit shall be refunded upon departure and the inspection of the room.

Given current developments, all utilities are included in the price except the electricity consumption fee which the tenants pay every month in cash upon reading the meter around every 1st of the month. The fee is shared between tenants evenly. This is stipulated in the rental agreement.

The guest can use the kitchen for preparing meals and beverages, as well as storing food. The guest will have access to the bathroom with a hot shower and a separated toilet. The guest receives two sets of bedding and two towels which are to be returned upon departure. The guest can freely contact the host for any questions or complaints they may have.

The host is responsible for informing the guest in a timely manner about possible adhoc guest relocation due to an unexpected construction work of the building following the 2020 earthquake that needs the tenants to be relocated for their safety. The guest gave the owner the deposit in the amount of one month’s rent and shall pay subsequent monthly rental fees in monthly installments in cash until the remainder of their stay. The guest is responsible for reporting any damage or malfunction of appliances. If they fail to do that, any damage (high water/electricity bill, etc.) as a result of the malfunction shall be reimbursed by the guest.

toilet tank, pipes, boiler, etc. The host is also responsible for paying all bills except the electricity consumption fee which shall be split between tenants on a monthly basis and paid in cash.

The guest is not allowed to sublease the property nor have guests without informing the host, so
that host can register the new guest with the police. The guest’s visitors are to pay EUR 10 per day after 3 days of their stay, which is complimentary.

The landlady sometimes spends the night in her room.

The guest agrees to rent when they are aware that the building has been slightly damaged during the earthquake in 2020. Some walls may have cracks that otherwise do not deteriorate the lifestyle.

Quiet hours between 10 pm and 7 am as per building rules. No loud music or guests as per house rules after 10 pm.

If you have to leave early and you booked the room until a later date, you still have to pay what we agreed upon.
