Vasily was communicative and clearly does care about his air BNB clients. However, we encountered multiple discrepancies between the ad and the actual apartment we stayed in. The pictures were clearly of another unit with the same floorplan/layout. The unit we stayed in, while somewhat clean, had many major issues that made our trip a stressful situation. A note that if you need to use the BBQ you have to tell them ahead of time. We were stuck when we got there because we had planned on using the BBQ, but figured out too late when we arrived with all of our supplies prepped and ready to cook, that the BBQs are only for residents and have to be booked ahead of time in order to obtain a key to turn them on.
The front hall closet is not useable as it currently serves as a storage unit for the hosts spare furniture and replenishment items. This wouldn't be a bad thing, if it was properly organized so that guests could still put coats, shoes, bags, and anything else into the main hall closet and bedroom. However, because it takes up the entire closet space, it is not an efficient use of space, and made it difficult for us to unpack and settle in.
Heads up to keep the map of the parking garage with you every time you go into it, or leave it. It is VERY easy to get lost and to find yourself wandering. Also on this note, make sure to use the SECOND door/elevator when going in, because the first one you find will only go up to the seventh floor, of a different part of the building.
While we were extremely excited to stay here, based largely on the many positive reviews, we were very disappointed and look forward to providing lots of detailed feedback to the host for future visitors. We wanted to make sure that guests who stay at this unit know that there are some major improvements that must be made before it will be suitable for people to stay in.
