The house itself was clean and spacious. However the beds in the bedrooms upstairs made so much noise that makes it very inconvenient for those staying there to have a good night sleep.
But the worst of all was that the house was in the middle of construction zone. We got there on July 5th before 6pm and we saw the walkway to house was all in mud and dirt. I sent pictures to host to let them know of the situation but he said it wasn’t like that when he left the house before check in time (5pm). The construction people started working before 6:30 am which made it impossible for us to sleep. During the next two days the situation got much worse that on July 8th early morning when we were leaving, the house was in the middle if construction zone! Trucks and diggers were working just in front of the house and we had to walk on a zone that no body should be allowed there without a helmet and boots.
The construction supervisor told us the construction has been going on since May and I only booked the place in June. I wish I was told about the construction and I would not book this place at all! I was told by the construction supervisor that they received notices twice about the massive construction and people in the neighborhood already evacuated the houses. They were surprised that we were staying in that house.
I understand some situations could be beyond the host’s control but I don’t think this was one of them since they received notice about the extent of the construction.
I am very upset about the service I received because of the lack of communication regarding this issue.
Even though the house had multiple parking spots because of the construction we couldn’t park in the house. We were told by the host half an hour before the check in to park on the other side of the street in the shops parking but then early in the morning the construction people told us to move our cars to another stree where we couldn’t see our cars otherwise they’re gonna toe them. At night I had a hard time not thinking whether my car is going to be there or not since my previous car was stolen just a few months ago when we were at a relative’s house. So not a pleasant last minute change of plan for me and my friends at all.
