The host was very responsive and friendly. The apartment itself has potential, however it has obviously not been well maintained. Furniture and kitchen appliances revamp is urgently needed. The air conditioner in the living room didn't work and there was a leakage in one of the bathrooms - which the host had already experienced before, unfortunately. There was a sewage smell in the kitchen and in one of the bathrooms. The host brought her cleaning lady one day to clean up the apartment and it helped a bit, but the smell came back the day after. The host called 2 technicians to fix the air conditioner - a problem she had also experienced before. It did not get fixed and I wasted 2 days of my trip in the apartment with them. My kids got sick given the heat and dust. Portable ac didn't help much. The host was very responsive and tried to be helpful, but the apartment itself wasn't the ideal experience, unfortunately, as It definitely needs maintenance.
