Dedicated workspace
There was a tiny desk with a chair offered as “dedicated workspace”. Although, in theory, this is all you need but staring at the wall is not my most inspirational environment if you know what I mean. 😊 However, there was a big terrace that would offer a more than ideal place to work during the spring and summer month. It was a little bit too cold to sit outside, unfortunately.
Exercise and meditation spaces
The flat itself is relatively small there was not much space to do a workout but there was definitely enough space to meditate. There is a Crossfit gym just across the road which offers a better workout. 😊
The kitchen was separated by a bar table and 2 chairs, I love this style when the living room and the kitchen are in the same area.
Unfortunately, there was no separate bedroom otherwise it would have been my ideal apartment.
There was a sofa-bed in the living room that functioned as the sleeping area, I myself prefer to have a separate bedroom and a proper bed but maybe I am just needy.
I can only repeat myself, I am used to bigger spaces, and I would not rent an apartment that does not have a separate bedroom.
Accessibility
The building itself is relatively new and there is a lift so even people with accessibility issues can safely rent this flat.
The apartment has good public transport connection to the city centre. Boraros square is 2 tram stops away which is a bigger transport hub. Deak Ferenc square is 20 minutes away.
Neighbourhood
The flat is located in the 9th district. You will find mostly locals in this area or international students who go to the nearby medical university. You have everything nearby if you don't feel like going in the centre, there are cafes, Spar supermarket and a Crossfit gym as well within walking distance.
There are some nice cafes in the neighbourhood that I loved:
- All Day Caffe Manuel
- V51cafe
- Pompeii Latte Art Caffe
The magnificent building of the Hungarian National Theatre is also nearby.
The host
The host was incredibly nice and kind. Originally, I wasn’t very happy with the apartment but he took my feedback seriously and made changes while I was there to make everything more comfortable for me. He was genuinely interested in how he can make the flat more attractive for digital nomads and cared about my wellbeing. He was very responsive when I texted him and he always asked if I needed anything. I really appreciated his efforts.
Summary: The flat is perfect for people who like studio apartments. It is nicely decorated and the big terrace makes it even better. The wifi speed was good and the connection was stable.

The owner was also very nice, he made sure I was comfortable and told me to message him should I need anything.
