I really wish people would write accurate reviews. “Needs updating” doesn’t really define this, especially for a management company using airbnb as its platform as opposed to an individual renting out their place.. The convoluted stalker way to get in is ridiculous for something you are paying for.
The Pros:
The views. The views particularly at night were outstanding
The location, super close to everything, easy transportation
The bed was not horrible, the shower was hot.
The Cons:
It is too bad they can’t seem invest to rent out as a company on airbnb. They request a 5 star review or contact them. Why should an inferior place/business be rewarded? We came in late and left the next day, a day earlier than reserved and paid for. It was that bad. On our late arrival, the place had all windows/doors open, to outside. I understood why as it smelled like an ashtray after shut, however, it was 8 degrees that night, so the unit was freezing. The futon was broken. I weigh 60 kilos and almost fell though when I sat on the futon. The “single pullout bed” is stained and didn’t even have linens so we had to share the bed. The carpet was gross. The doona barely fit on the bed. The curtain rod was broken so couldn’t close them from the early morning sun. The check in process is ridiculous. Waiting outside with luggage to run in after someone who lives there and has opened the door like a creepy stalker as instructed is ridiculous. The key retrieval system is convoluted; don’t try if you don’t have your phone to shine a torch on the lock box at the back of the mail box.
