BUYER BEWARE! This was the worst Airbnb experience I’ve ever had. I’ll break down the facts below.
The place was, for a lack of a better word, disgusting:
- There was dust, dirt, and debris everywhere (even in high traffic areas!) We had to wipe down all surfaces and wear socks the whole time.
- Sticky floors and tables
- Hair EVERYWHERE (IN the bed/sheets, in the shower, in the sick, on the floor). We found sheets in the closet and even those were covered in stains and hair. Because we had no where else to stay so last minute (without spending hundreds of dollars on a hotel room) we had to wash the sheets ourselves.
- The washer has black mold in the soap area.
- Worst of all, there was BLOOD on the walls in one of the bedrooms! (And a dirty/bloody hand print.)
Truly the the grossest Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in and that’s not an understatement. When I reached out to the host, with pictures proving all of this, I was “assured” the place was cleaned and then received no other communication from the host.
Not only that, I and my friends felt completely UNSAFE staying there due to a ownership legality issue! For protection of myself and others, I’ll give high level details:
- There was a letter and law office papers taped to the door and inside when we arrived stating the place was being rented out without the consent of the co-owner.
- The co-owner noted in the letter that they would be regaining access to the property during our stay!
- We slept with a chair against the door incase someone came in while we were there/sleeping so we could here them. FRIGHTENING!
Again, when I reached out about this, there was NO follow up on this safety matter!
It was all around an absolutely terrible experience!
