1) The host has a cleaning business so the apartment you’re renting is used to train new staff and they show up at random times to clean. If you work from home, you’ll have a major issue with this as it can be distracting to your work and meetings. And you’re not allowed to say no to these visits.
2) Some of the random cleaners might use racial slurs at you and the host will not acknowledge or apologize to you for them.
3) 2 months into my stay, I came out to my car back light being smashed and I quietly paid $768 to get it fixed without complaining.
5) 2 weeks before me leaving, the host brought two new people into an apartment that was advertised as only going to have 2 people in total so there were now 3 people having to share 1 bathroom. I got moved to a new listing at 4855 4855 Rue des Ormeaux which got flooded and my car got stolen. Thankfully the cops found it but I ended up spending about $955 more to fix the damages.
6) In 4855, my groceries were eaten without permission.
