Simon was in many ways a kind and responsive host. His apartment is in a fantastic location. However, it is incredibly uncomfortable. The couch was dirty, hard, and the seat slants forward making it hard to use. The shelves are poorly anchored and falling off the wall. And the bed was so hard I had to add a piece of foam to it. He said he was considering getting a new one anyway and would try to get it right away. But it tuned out not to be possible. I asked for a partial refund and he refused. A very uncomfortable stay.
