We both really hurt our backs on the concrete block whilst climbing to the bed which is a lot closer to the bed that it seems resulting in pain and severe black bruising for the rest of our trip. This needs to be looked into as it is rather unsafe.
The location was fairly close to the centre and a good location walking wise, a lot of noise outside on the street from passers by at all hours of the morning which I appreciate can’t be helped by the host just something to consider if you want a quiet stay or not.
The host was friendly and quick to communicate however a lot of the queries we asked were left unresolved. There was no hand wash in the bathroom or kitchen, we had to use washing up liquid. The shower would flood over the floor and we would have to use the towels to soak up the water, leaving the towels unusable and soaking.
When trying to leave, we were unable to get out as the door was jammed shut. We spent an hour trying to get out and ended up missing our connecting train. We finally got our by having to climb out of the window as we couldn’t open it which was embarrassing to passers by who thought we were breaking in! I think a lot of things need to be reassessed safety wise before continuing to host this space to others.
