We had a terrible experience in Farshid's place. We were supposed to stay 2 nights over the August long weekend. Before we arrived, Farshid explained that the first night, we would be staying in a deluxe room, which was quite far from deluxe. The bathroom was dirty, no towels (even paper towels to dry our hands). The blinds in the room and bathroom were filthy, we received two pillows for the room that were paper thin. Farshid then told us we would be in an economy room for the second night (with a $25 discount) (difference between deluxe and economy was a shared bathroom - which we were okay with before seeing the place) So upon arrival, we asked his associate to see the second room we would be staying in. This man proceeded to have an argument with the person staying in the economy room (who would be moving the following morning, the room was to be cleaned then we would have it). The man staying in the room opened the door to show us this room which was super filthy and there was nothing in it but a thin mattress on the ground! We were shocked as we had not been told the room would be in this state.

This associate then had an argument with the maid - it was an extremely uncomfortable situation. We told this man that we would bring our luggage to our car the next morning. My partner and I knew we would not be staying a second night in this place. We both slept in our clothes on the bed for the first night - my partner did check for bed bugs which thank god there weren't any.

This was our first time using Airbnb so when we walked away from Farshid's associate, we looked up the cancellation policy - we saw that we had to pay for the first night but could cancel a second night within 24 hours and that the host would accept.

We had 26 hours before we had to check in for the second night so we sent the an amendement request. Farshid had texted us and messaged us via Airbnb that he would refund the second night. He said that he did not receive the request, I texted him a picture showing that we sent the request and he mocked me, stating that he would not lie to save $75.

My partner has since received his credit card statement that shows the full charge for the two nights, we have messaged Farshid and not heard anything from him about the refund. I would NEVER recommend anyone stay in any of this man's places! It was a terrible experience and we are not sure if we will use Airbnb again...there are too many people who seem to lie or be dishonest about what they are offering!
