***AVOID****
Noisy.....MICE....lack of clean water
Due to construction on the street which we were not made aware of, it was incredibly hard to sleep. The work seems to be extensive and goes on 24 hours a day. There is also some industry nearby so it is never quiet there.
There was also mice in the house from the first day we moved in. In my opinion we should have been told about this at the very least as it is very unhygienic. The hosts were aware of this as there was a token few traps about the house already.
Originally we were meant to stay a month, We complained , requested to move out early and a refund for the days we wouldn't be there, which the host accepted. Unfortunately we still ended up paying for our two week stay at a higher rate after the refund, so we requested a discount over this and since we were so miserable with the unliveable circumstances.
The water from the taps was cloudy and undrinkable which lead to an extra cost for us, but litres upon litres of water to drink and cook another reason we have requested a discount from the host.
The host requested $500 from us for a broken leg off an old couch which we used less then a hand full of times, the couch is old and already damaged which leads me to believe that the couch is lucky to have lasted this long. There was no foul play during our stay, and if you can't sit on a couch without breaking that to me is not the tenants fault, we looked after the house with respect and left it as clean as possible when leaving in the hope of parting on good terms! But this was not possible. I would avoid this host as they are just money grabbers, the house is over priced to begin and to be faced with charges for a faulty couch is unfair on any tenant.
We had to escalate a case to Air BnB over the mice, noise and lack of clean water which is currently being dealt with.
