I've had nothing but great AirBNB experiences, and sadly, this was the first to not go well. Ines is pretty much a pill to deal with and it felt as if she went out of her way to be unaccommodating. It began when I let her know that our international flight landed at 8:30AM, she informed us that check in was at 3PM and suggested we take our time at the airport and have breakfast there. I requested to drop off our bags (not check in early) and she made it incredibly difficult. I was told that the managers of the apartment were in and out and here and there and it seemed quit complicated to check in but once we arrived at the apartment (after a lengthy delay at customs) we discovered that the building managers in fact live within the building and were easily accessible, and, the apartment had been ready since the morning. Upon arrival we were given a lot of rules, like roll up the living room carpet if walking with shoes. On day 2 of our 8 day stay Ines emailed and asked when we'd be checking out. I said I had planned to check out on time at noon and was told that it be at 11:30AM instead. At every crossroad there was always an issue with no real good reason.
Separate of the above, the apartment was fine, comfortable and well located. But, we wouldn't stay again because it was on the ground floor of a busy street going intoTrocadero. We were woken up by police sirens, big trucks and motorcycles whizzing by several of the nights we were there.
