Octavian is not a “host.” He doesn’t respond (sometimes for months—literally) and his place is utterly disgusting. There was mold, filth, hair, and stains, but he was adamant that he had a “cleaning lady.” We could only stay two of the seven nights we booked, as my wife had continual asthma attacks from the dirt and mold. Even though AirBNB told us they’d find us a new place, they did nothing, so we ended up getting a hotel on our own—and it was so nice to be in a clean space. If you really want to risk your vacation on a nasty place and no customer support, this is your spot. Otherwise, save yourself a hassle (and possibly a lawyer!), and book with Hotels dot com or with a reputable hotel chain. We’ve happily stayed with AirBNB before, but, due to this experience, we never will again!
