Location location location.
This apartment is well located but not for families.
We arrived to find that the people who had rented the apartment before us had partied long and hard. We were met with the rancid smell of cigarettes and alcohol. It took days to air the place! The cleaners had done their best to clean up after them but we were left with so many issues to deal with.
Hole punched in the wall, blue liquid sprayed on floors, furniture and walls, broken bed side light and out door lounge torn so that it was unusable. Fans not working in bedrooms and as they were not air conditioned, the two bedrooms were exceptionally hot in the afternoon and overnight. I took photos of all of the issues.
The washing machine was full of dirty underpants and socks! Not something you want to deal with; trust me.
We chose this Airbnb as it had a pool and lovely outdoor areas and unfortunately we were not able to use them. The apartments next to and below us had been rented out to a group of (14 in total) young people who spent the entire time drinking, smoking and partying at the pool and in the shared outdoor area. It was awful.
We did not have to complain as we were contacted by the owners agent to ask how it was as other residents had complained. Once we shared our views we were told if they don’t improve then they shall give them a bad review. That did not help us nor did it help our holiday!
I spent a lot of money buying cleaning products so that I could get the kitchen and bathrooms up to an appropriate standard too. It was disappointing no cleaning products were supplied.
I feel for the owner but we paid a lot to stay and it really was not fair nor appropriate that we had this experience.
