Our stay at Genevieve and Esala's place was rather problematic, and I'm prefacing this by saying that our experiences are probably a one-time trip-up by the hosts.
In brief, the hosts were unresponsive via text or telephone when we arrived (they were away), and i could not access any check-in details. We asked 3 neighbors on that street for help and ended up in the cold for an hour and a half. We had to stay at a hotel nearby and come back in the morning. In the morning we had to depend on the artists working in the building for help to check us in. The hosts, gen and esala, did come back to compensate us with the money spent at the hotel and the first night, as well as helping us with using the common areas and cleaning.
Apparently it was both an airbnb glitch and a one-time oversight on the hosts' part on the self-checkin instructions, which is completely understandable. I dont bear grudges about that.
However there were minor but rather significant issues as well, like very moldy food found in the fridge, and a rat we found scurrying across the ceiling pipes, slight flooding from leaking pipes under the sink. Just beware that the space is not exactly made-for-living but makeshift-for-living.
Despite all that, the location is gorgeous - really interesting districts all around and really accessible. It's a lovely neighborhood with really good food, shops. The space itself also has fantastic aesthetics, and the kitchen is functional. gen & esala are wonderful in person, and they're really cool to talk to.
