The apartment is in a great location and was in good shape with a few rough edges and limited heating. Although it’s not within the owner’s control, the entry and stairway to the apartment is decrepit, dark and smells of mold. Cedric responded quickly to messages and sent a technician immediately when the power shut off which we appreciated. However he was unwilling to provide a second key to the apartment door and insisted on us leaving the only key in the locked box downstairs - even after I explained my elderly father was almost blind and could not read the small numbers in the dark entry way. Because of this, my father and I had to share one door key. It wasn’t an expensive key, it was a regular one so disappointing that Cedric would not accommodate the request. It caused logistical problems with us each getting locked out and having to take taxis back across town to let each other in. Overall it was okay but not my favorite Airbnb experience.
