The host informed me the day before or so that they wanted to meet me in front of their building to give me the key. I had a lot of running around to do so this was very inconvenient and mentioned to them most airbnbs either leave the key somewhere or have the lock box. They still would not budge. As I mentioned I had a lot of things to do before going to the condo I apologize to them as my eta was delayed many times..( Ubers kept canceling) the whole experience was not good. They we’re understanding and said not to worry. Last minute is when they said they will be leaving their key with someone in the building and asked me NOT to tell anyone in the building / security that they were running Airbnb. They wanted me to lie and tell the security I was their friend. They told me multiple times. Personally if they would have left the key somewhere they wouldn’t have to go through that. It was all just so much of a hassle.
Secondly they were not truthful about the check in time. I have screenshots of it being for 2pm and they told me it was at 3 so again that messed up my original plans as well.
Third there was a maintenance issue w the washroom and I tried to fix it before I left but they didn’t have the necessary tools in the washroom to fix it. I told the host the situation before I left as well. I didn’t hide it. They tried to lie on me saying I made a mess when that is in fact not true as I have used airbnb many times and I always clean up after myself. My previous host last year even thanked me for cleaning up so well. It was spotless! Anyhow I do not appreciate how they tried to lie as I have videos.
Overall the condo is nice. Alright location.
