I would never work with this host again. The apartment and experience fell short of basic standards of cleanliness and the general condition of the property was very poor. The pictures posted must be really really old.
This place has a cockroach problem and the host knew this, but still put it on airbnb. Furthermore she blamed the problem on an Indian Indian family who stayed there once. She also made judgmental comments about my appearance. These things really offended me.
Problems with the condition of the property:
- the ice box is completely frozen and leaks into the refridgerator
- broken furniture in the bedroom
-stained furniture and curtains
- the floorboards entering the bathroom are broken/taped over. The floor feels like it is going to break further where the damage was done.
- after flushing the toilet 3-4 times the toilet doesn't rid of contents. There is leftover waste in the bowl.
- there is mold embedded in the bathtub caulking
- the towels were wet when we arrived
- the windows leaked rainwater into a puddle in the hallway
-paint rolling off the walls and walls stained
One big problem was that the bathroom and bedroom ceiling height were not as described as being being so low. If you are at least 5'10, you would have to hunch over to walk around those rooms and probably hit your head several times.
We cancelled our reservation and were thankfully refunded by airbnb.
