Story time:
While trying to sleep the first night at Sabri's place, I couldn't:
1. The bed sheets were smelly, mostly due to overheating during the drying process, but also some kind of old smell
2. the building is very noisy, (expected for old buildings), but the neighbors are entering and leaving the apartment every hour, from mid night to 6 am, non-stop
When I asked Sabri about the bedsheets, he suggested I get new ones which were in the apartment, I did, but I regret doing so, when I was changing them I was able to see massive dirty underneath the bed and multiple horrible stains on the mattress and its cover, it was very disgusting.
Upon seeing that I decided I didn't want to stay there anymore when talking to Sabri, he tried to be super helpful and send someone to do a deep clean and get new bedsheets, which was appreciated, however, I had already made my decision to not stay there, I'd like things to be clean before and not after, plus the horrible mattress and the noise, I didn't need to cope with that.
Sabri was very helpful so far until I tried to negotiate a way for us to part ways (keep in mind this was all within 24h of the staying), he suggested to refund me only 3 out 11 nights, even if I vacant his apartment on the second night, in which he could then rent to someone else, I was proposing a 50% for each of us which I thought was a good deal, unfortunately, he was very strong about keeping the money even after knowing that I already had left his place after the first night.
I was forced to get in contact with Airbnb in order to solve it and get a proper deal, which I was happy to have. And while on a call with Airbnb, they informed me that if I had opened a case with them within 24h I could have got a full refund, which I find very unfortunate that Sabri didn't tell me about that, as a host I think that was his obligation, but who knows the true motives behind that..
I just want to share my story in case you find yourself in this situation, make sure to talk to Airbnb itself right away.
