First, the good:
- Amazing location on the northern edge or Kensington Market. So many great spots within walking distance in almost any direction.
- Christopher was pleasant to communicate with and the check-in process was super smooth.
Now, some other feedback that not a lot of other reviews seem to mention:
- The TV would not turn on the entire stay, and when I asked about it I didn’t get a response, which is irritating. I’m not going on a trip to watch TV, but it would’ve been nice to have and should work if it’s advertised in the listing.
- There should really be some more basic amenities to make people feel a bit more at home - extra toilet paper, a coffee maker, extra towels, etc. I had to ask for extra toilet paper because there was only one roll available. Christopher was responsive and brought one extra roll and some towels to us within an hour or less - but all of those thing should be at a standard Airbnb that costs what this does.
- The apartment has great natural light but only one window in the entire apartment had curtains. This was frustrating from both a privacy standpoint and because of how bright it gets at night from the streetlight directly outside the window.
- Many of the electric outlets didn’t seem to work.
- It wasn’t exactly dirty but the apartment seemed like it could have been cleaner.
In conclusion, you’re mostly paying for the location - which is A+.
