Leading up to our stay in Prague, we were excited to stay at Anatoliy’s place. However, upon arrive, the apartment was not up to our standards. He did not meet us; rather he left the key with a rude store clerk across the street. The windows had been left open, so there were bugs on the beds. People kept walk by, stopping and looking in the apartment. The hallways reeked of cigarette smoke. Once I told him we were leaving, there was no further contact or even a reply to our message. I found this behavior unprofessional, and it caused our trip to start on a bad note.
