My friends and I stayed here for a few nights for an Erasmus reunion. It is in a great location, within walking distance of most things to do/transport to get there. It is very well kitted out with utensils, a dish washer etc. It would be nice if there was a general bathroom too, rather than having to use the ensuite of someone's room all the time, but that is a minor thing. The host was extremely helpful. I would return.

Great location, friendly host.

The best host ever Vicki! Friendly, reliable and most helpful. We had a great stay, location of the Jokai 6 apartment is walking distance to so many great places in Budapest. In regards of apartment we had, it was not what we expected. We thought we have booked 2 bedroom, but it is really only mezzanine upstairs which is divided by the door. So will not really get 2 private bedrooms. One is open, second one has the door but no window, so you might feel weird inside if you don’t like dark places. Somehow I could not feel comfortable inside. Also the bathroom is downstairs by the living space.
So for that reason we would choose a different place in next time but full credit to Vicki again as everything was smooth thanks to her. Thank you again for having us.

Great location, but not really 2 private bedrooms

Fellow travelers, hereby I would like to warn you and strongly reconsider before you choose Booking.com! I’m sharing my story in which I lost 80% of my rental pay in order to prevent future victims from Booking.com. 
In a nutshell, due to a mistake between property owner and Booking.com I had become the victim of their fault. Even though both parties acknowledged that it was not my fault, I had to cancel my stay and lost 80% of my rental pay because of their mistake. In the end, I did not even get compensated for the trouble they caused.   
Below I’ll explain in more detail what happened to me. 
Via Booking.com I had booked an apartment (t.ly/jOmq3) for a total of seven people from the 28th of November till the 1st of December located in Budapest, Hungary. In the apartment description on the website it was written that there were two bathrooms and three bedrooms – one of the bedrooms was supposed to have one double bed and a single bed, while the other two only had double beds. 
However, when we arrived at the property we noticed that it only had one bathroom and the bedrooms only had double beds, even though we booked one room with a double bed and a single bed in the same room. Also, one bed was located in the living room and two of the rooms did not have windows for outside air, which was not written or shown in the photos online. 
When I spoke to the property owner about this he acknowledged that we indeed had the right to two bathrooms based on our rental booking. The owner explained that they provided a property description in the Romanian language to Booking.com, and that Booking.com had incorrectly translated their property description. Then again, the owner did not double-check the translated versions of Booking.com for mistakes. He tried to give a solution by providing an extra apartment for the first night, we would have to go back to the booked apartment for the second night, and receive another extra apartment for the final night. The additional costs would not be charged to us. While we really appreciated his effort in trying to find a solution, it meant that we could not stay together as a group and had to continuously move our belongings, which generally speaking is not a pleasant vacation experience.  
When we spoke to Booking.com they blamed the property owner for providing a description in a language that would be different than the one being presented, since it was provided in Romanian and listed in English. Then again, it was Booking.com that translated the description to English according to the property owner. Also, the owner suggested to me that Booking.com should give me a full refund for my stay.  
Nevertheless, the party being at fault here is not for me to decide. However, what was clear after having spoken to both parties is that none of them pointed towards me as being wrong or at fault. Since it was not my mistake I asked Booking.com for a cancellation and a full refund, however they told me the latter was not possible. After calling again and Booking.com “internally discussed” the issue and agreed to give me a 20% refund of my cancellation. When I asked how they came to the amount of 20% they couldn’t give me an explanation besides it being “internally discussed”. After this I wanted to file a complaint and asked Booking.com where I could do this, to which they answered that it had already been internally considered as a complaint. This to me was very odd, since I did not consider it to be a complaint only after I found out that I would get refunded for 20%. Also, when I again asked where to file a complaint, they said there was no place to do this. Furthermore, in the Booking.com mobile application it is mentioned that if you cancel your stay for different reasons, you would get 20% of your money back. In the end, Booking.com refunded what we were entitled to if we canceled the reservation on our terms and  they did not give any compensation for the trouble they caused us.
To conclude, while our trip to Budapest was supposed to be a fun, relaxing vacation; it became anything but the aforementioned. Not only did we lose our hard-earned money, gained stress, lost one day time of our three-day-trip, but we were also clueless in a foreign country. Dear Booking.com, as you mention on your website to connect travelers to “memorable experiences”, this most definitely was one of them, rather in the most disappointing fashion. I had expected a more professional way of problem-solving from Booking.com, however I guess I was wrong.

Customers Victimized by Fault Booking.com and Property Owner

Perfect location and very Nice guy. We were 8 girls renting apartment 1 from thursday to sunday. When we arrived we were picked up at the AirPort and when we came to the apartment, the host spent lots of time telling us about things to do in Budapest and so on, even though we arrived late. Very good service! Also on our last day, I had a flight later than my friends, and he was so friendly to store my bags in another apartment, so i could spent some more time in the City. Great service!

Long weekend in Budapest

What I liked...
The price for this beautifully updated, decorated two-bedroom apartment with wood floors, high ceilings, two large bathrooms with soap and towels, and fully equipped kitchen (coffee maker, mini-refrigerator, stove, microwave, toaster, teapot kettle, pots and pans, dishes, utensils, towels, iron and ironing board, paper towels, etc.) was the best price in town for the area. I was fortunate to be the first one to respond to the booking.com posting. The location (Mozsar utca 9), which is one block north of Andrassy Boulevard (the Champs Elysee of Budapest), was convenient because it is close to the Opera and Oktogon metros, several supermarkets, opera house, theatres, and many reasonably priced restaurants. Many museums, theatres, tourist attractions are within walking distance. Alessandro, the manager, was so helpful in showing me the security system of the apartment building and telling me about the surrounding area. His framed wall map of the area with key sites and restaurants was useful. The wifi was fast and the temperature in the apartment was perfect inside. I never needed to turn on the fan or heater even though the temperature ranged from 90 F to rainy, cool days during my four-night stay in May. I highly recommend the Operetta.

What I didn't like....
The street with cars was a little noisy in the daytime when the windows were open. On one evening, I enjoyed hearing some operetta singer practice. The evenings and nights were quiet.

Description of the property....
This spacious two-bedroom, updated apartment with Italian eclectic design (warm wall colors, wood furniture and contemporary lights) with two bathrooms and fully equipped kitchen (mentioned in the ‘like’ section) was conveniently located in a safe area. The main entrance of the apartment complex has a keyed security or key system. After passing the wood entry doors, there are mailboxes for the local resident tenants, and a set of stairs with an old-style elevator that takes you up to the first floor. Operetta #8 is about 10 feet from the elevator. You need another key to enter the secure apartment.

Wonderful Apartment near the Opera in Budapest

I was at one of the Opera apartments for a week. The location  and value were excellent. Alessandro was very helpful and attentive. All in all, a great experience.

If you book through Expedia or other similar site, do yourself a favor and visit easyflat's website, so as to properly know the payment policy (cash) and such. Additionally, the photos will allow you to familiarize yourself with the layout of the apartment ( so that you can make your own judgment regarding the number of people who can share it). 

In this time of Google maps and such, directions may seem superfluous. Nevertheless, I found that the nearby metro 3 stop (even though slightly further from the apartment) made for a much better airport connection. Lookout for the Argentine restaurant in the corner across the street, it will lead you to O street. From there, it is a pretty straight run.
