I emailed the host through thw airbnb app the day prior and no response. I arrived at the apartment building early and asked the doorman if there is any information on my stay but there was none. I contacted Airbnb and they could not get a hold of the host. I was without a place to stay and no contact with the host. After several attempts to call and email the host, I contacted airbnb again. They still could not reach the host. I called the host again and He answered. He stated that he did not have the unit rented and was using it with his family. He did not provide assistance and I asked that he reach out to airbnb to inform them. I made several calls to Airbnb and Pamela was able to locate lodging for my trip. No communication from the host and the reservation was made weeks in advance. I would not recommend this place based on my interaction with the host .
