Beautifully sleek and modern interior design, plus, the host greeted me at the door, however, I would not choose to rebook.
The listing has multiple inaccuracies. I cannot stress this enough, the host does not have this home safety feature —> Lock on bedroom door - Private room which can be locked for safety and privacy. This was a HUGE reason to why I decided to book this airbnb and turns out that “lock” is the lock to the place, NOT the private room. Host also told me they don’t really lock their front door since the floor is safe and they know their neighbours, not entirely calming for me to hear.
“Separate entrance on the bedroom level makes it a very private room with your own bathroom.”
1. Laundry machine was being used 2/3 days, meaning host or family was wandering downstairs (laundry machine is a step away from the washroom)
2. Host family sleeps in the room next to your room (the room across the laundry machine)
3. Stairs leading to the kitchen/living room is right next to your entrance and because there’s no door, everything can be heard from downstairs
4. Super adorable but very active barking host pet, Coco will indeed park whenever she senses an unfamiliar presence (usually activated by opening or closing doors)
Amenities not included in room, but clarified with host and used
- Hot water kettle
- Coffee maker: drip coffee maker
Amenities not included in room, never bothered to ask about
- Wine glasses
- Hangers
- Bed linens
- Iron
- First aid kit
Few other odd experiences that I had during my stay:
1. Woke up on the first morning to the host's daughter crying and in an argument with the host.
2. Constantly darting between the washroom and room as I heard voices or footsteps outside of my room many times (her nephew came to visit on day 2) A
3. Coco will indeed bark almost every time you enter the house, or any door too loudly
4. Followed up with host 4 times in the span of two days to figure out how to get access to the bbq grill on the roof and at that point, there wasn’t enough time to use it before the roof deck closes.
