The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
The Good: First of all, this is generally speaking a nice AirBnb. Communication with the Host was good and quick. The location is very nice, lots of restaurants and shops around. Subway right around the corner. Phuong helped as in obtaining a parking permit beforehand. The room has and en-suite bathroom. Great. Everything was well and as announced.
The Bad: Problem in our case was that the A/C in our room was broken. At first I thought it didn’t have A/C to begin with. But all other rooms were properly cooled and ‚our‘ outlet kept silent. Also the room was west facing so it started to heat up in the afternoon till evening and by the time we wanted to sleep we were staying in a sauna. It was really hot. Also there was a different kind of construction site right in front of our window every morning. That was just bad luck, I guess. But together with a non-functioning A/C and the need to keep the window open sleep was scarce.
The Ugly: I mentioned the problem to the host. First there was no answer, after a day she acknowledged it and said she would implement a temp fix. We didn’t get to see it. I would have wished for some better communication there - and immediate action.
So all in all this might be a real good value AirBnb but in our case it was a bit of a strain. Might be my personal sensibilities, though.
