The good:
- The location downtown is great.
- The apartment was new.
The bad:
The post-reservation process is horrible. After reserving with airbnb and they take the payment you have to go through an entire separate process with the company of this listing.
You have to:
- sign up to their website and give all your personal information
- verify your email
- verify your phone number
- upload a government issued document
- take three photos of yourself with their verification system
- download their app
All this even if you are fully verified with airbnb already and have plenty of positive reviews and no negatives and live within the country/province. So you now have yet another potential system that can get hacked and leak all your data or have your data sold/traded to other companies.
The second negative is the pictures may or may not be of the actual unit you will stay in.
