The location was great and very walkable to several good restaurants and shops. The apartment was very tiny but clean. My main challenge was communication.
I submitted a modification to the reservation 16 days prior to the trip. At that time, the change would have cost me 30% of the trip cost. However, Imane did not get back to me until 6 days prior to the trip. By that time, according to the Cancelation policy, I had to now pay 100% of the cost. I tried to message Imane several times but did not receive a response. Finally, she got back to me and I expressed that this seems unfair that I have to now pay 100% of the cost. She agreed to reduce the charge but it still would cost me 60% of the cost. I indicated to her that as a host the change needs to initiate from her side since it was overriding the "adjusted price". She did not initiate the change and requested that I contact AirBnB. 3 days prior to the trip, I had to call AirBnB and ask them to help me out. It took several phone calls from a very patient AirBnB agent and 4 hours of my Saturday morning to sort everything out. I definitely could have stayed at a much better place for the price that I ended up paying.
To top it off, I requested an early check-in that Imane agreed to. We decided on 11AM. When I got there, I received a message from her at 10:54AM indicating that I can only drop off my luggage as the cleaners won't arrive till 11:30 and will be done by 1PM. I had to cancel my afternoon plans as a result.
I have never in the past 6 years written a bad review, but I definitely do not recommend this place.
