I booked Daniel's place for an extended stay. However, I requested a refund from Airbnb under the AirCover policy upon moving in.
The apartment was described as a "penthouse, " implying a certain quality. I felt misled. The building is old, and the apartment is a fourth-floor walk-up with no elevator and a cramped staircase. Carrying my luggage up and down again was an issue!
The furniture and the kitchen equipment did not match the "penthouse" standard either—everything was very basic and incongruent with the high listing price.
Furthermore, the water was very chlorinated and immediately started damaging my skin.
Lastly, there were severe cleanliness issues.
Fortunately, I was able to request a refund from Airbnb 🙏
