I cannot say I was particularly impressed by my stay at this Airbnb. While it is somewhat stylish and conveniently located, there was a lot of small issues with the apartment that on their own wouldn’t be an issue, but when added up were annoying.
- Multiple burnt out light bulbs. The bathroom only had one working bulb meaning it was extremely dark. One of the lamps in the bedroom was also broken.
- A non-working balcony door, which to be fair I can’t complain about too much as we were made aware of it when booking, BUT:
- The smart TV was also broken by previous guests and has a line through the middle, which they apparently were also aware of but didn’t tell us. The handle for the window is also broken.
- A badly equipped kitchen with extremely dull knives, no wooden spoons to stir with, no cooking oil just PAM spray, a mostly empty salt shaker, the described “selection of teas” was one sad box of camomile, no proper wine glasses etc. We booked this place instead of a hotel mainly to have a kitchen and yet it was a frustrating experience trying to cook here.
- A VERY dead plant in the living room as decor.
Again, one or two of these on their own wouldn’t be a big deal, especially if this Airbnb was run by an individual, but considering it’s run by a rental company (who seems to have a lot of extra fees they’re willing to charge people for, I might add) I would expect more. My advice would be to close the place down for a few days and replace some light bulbs, get some better cooking equipment, and fix some things up before renting to the next guests.
