It was so filthy. I have 3+ years in the housekeeping Industry, so that being said. I know exactly what to look out for. I always do a thorough inspection of any new “room” I stay in. I always check for cleanliness and hidden cameras for safety precautions.
The bed closest to the sink had absolutely no sheets or blankets at all. There wasn’t a pillow that I could use either. This bed has a blue mattress protector on it and it had crumbs of food all over it. It was so filthy I recorded it and sent it to my friends and family. Had I of not brought myself a blanket, I would have slept on the couch in only my pyjamas. I also had not brought a pillow, so I had to use my arm as a rest while sleeping through the night on the couch. It was the worst sleep my sister and I have ever had. The bed she slept on was so springy. She could feel the springs on her back all night long. You can physically feel the springs when you sit down on the bed. She woke up feeling stiff because of this.
There was also spiders all around the wall next to the bed that was lacking sheets, blankets and a pillow. They were under a white cubby they have nailed onto the wall. I’m afraid of spiders.
The doorknobs were greasy. The lock to the door did not work unless we forced it very hard to the left. Which is a very serious safety hazard. I had a hard time sleeping through the night knowing that the door lock is broken. Especially because there was another guest staying in the Airbnb at the same time we were.
The toilet had hair on it, the sink and mirror was so disgusting. In both the room and the washroom. The mirrors were disgusting. There was hair in the shower, hair all over the shower curtain (the shower curtain was so slimy from never being disinfected I actually gagged and felt like I was standing in bacteria in the shower). I was afraid of catching a foot fungus. The ceiling of the shower is disgusting. They have a bunch of soap bars (already used) in the shower alongside shampoos and conditioners. Encouraging the use of dirty already used soap bars during a pandemic is frightening and unsanitary. Especially if someone isn’t a clean person. Their bacteria would be left on said bars of soap.
The filth, especially during a pandemic is not acceptable. We were extremely disappointed and grossed out. This caused us to feel extremely unsafe. We should never have to worry about the safety of our health when staying in a home through airbnb. Cleanliness is a must, this is not acceptable and it’s dangerous to anyone that stays there due to their negligence. They could cause someone sickness and during a pandemic that is x10 more probable. They could kill someone if they don’t take the cleanliness more serious.
The wet cloth they had laid out on the counter top next to the sink was disgusting. I flipped it over in the video I took and you could see the filth on it. Someone’s leftover food and crumbs. They neglected to do a proper evaluation of the room prior to our arrival and neglected cleaning it properly. I washed my hand after recording the video because I was so scared of the germs that would be on it. Especially because there is no way for me to know if the person(s) who stayed before us have or had covid/any other sicknesses.
