Our stay at Michael's place cannot be described in simple words, but i will try to be as concise as possible.
We (my partner and I) began looking at the apartment's profile on the Airbnb page. Over 40 highly positive comments convinced us that it might be the right place for us. The ratings (cleanliness, comfort, etc.) reflected this trend. Before we met, Michael was easy to reach, gave clear indications, and was overall nice. This is about everything positive I can say, however.
From the moment we arrived, Michael was oddly euphoric and generally hard to interact with. The room was ok, but the floor was dirty. Same in most other rooms, along with dirty faucets and surfaces in the bathrooms, and so on. The kitchen was so dirty we did not even consider using it.
The first night, we were so tired we managed to sleep through most of the loud music and bass. Still, the smell of smoke came from the balcony into the room more than once. Said smell accompanied us over the whole stay.
The second night we entered very late at night, so no issue there. The third and last night, however, we were awaken by loud music and voices at around 2am. As this went on for more than an hour, we texted the hosts if they could keep it low, to no result. Short past 4am we opened the door of the room to say something in person, and we were met with... Let's call it nakedness under red lights, and leave it at that. As it is not our place to speculate, we will add only that we did not feel comfortable nor safe enough to ask any questions, make our presence known, or ask to even lower the music. We shut the door, tried to go back to sleep, and stayed awake until all sounds stopped; about an hour later.
This was all extremely awkward and unnerving, especially considering that the afternoon before we had been asked to vacate the room no later than 9/9:30am (check-out was advertised at 11am on airbnb). This would not have been an issue at all, were it not for the almost sleepless night.
In short, our stay at Michael's place was not at all what we expected it to be. We did not particularly enjoy anything, we often felt uncomfortable, and we tried to stay out as much as possible. None of this was expected, considering the profile's former feedbacks.
We take no pleasure in writing any of this, but we feel like it is our duty to tell our experience as precisely as possible; at least from our perspective.
