First off with the positive of this Airbnb listing. It was nice that there was someone physically there to hand off keys and the view from the Airbnb is as good as promised. Additionally, the location of the Airbnb nearby the tram and the city was really useful for my trip.
Unfortunately, there were several issues before and during our stay.
First, about communication. There was a unfortunately a bad first impression after booking when there was a month in-between the last message I sent and when I had chased up my question to receive a response. Even then, my question wasn’t answered. Additionally, once arriving at the Airbnb, it was a bit strange as I was unsure who exactly I was meeting up with as no details were given. Even then with the woman who ended up greeting me, I don’t think she even provided a name. Overall, communication was poor as there were questions again ignored and seemingly lots of autogenerated messages sent instead. This ultimately detracted from our experience.
Second, cleanliness was a big concern during our stay. A few of the bowls and plates had grease residue on it - the same went for the odd glass here and there. We saw a few bugs crawling around during our stay which wouldn’t have been something to flag but given the other issues, it was off putting.
Third, there were a few inaccuracies or missed details with the Airbnb description. With the workspace in the separate room, there was no dedicated chair provided or chair in the Airbnb that would fit, rendering it useless for those expecting a usable workspace. Further, there were a lot of things broken in the Airbnb - some were flagged to us once we met the woman handing off the keys I.e. towel rack and broken middle stove. This wasn’t a great first impression given how much we had spent on this stay to have parts of the Airbnb non-functional. However some other things that were missed were the broken stove fan, the low pressure/non-working tap in the master bedroom bathroom, and the leaky holes in the shower head tubes. Unfortunately, the internet was also quite poor where all 4 of us had to rely on our hotspots to connect to the internet for our general use, not even work calls. This was disappointing as we expected a much higher quality stay given how much we paid for it over other stays offered.
Ultimately, this Airbnb has a great location and views as listed, however, if you’re looking for a place to actually live during your stay, and good value, I unfortunately would reconsider given the above.
