Heads up, we got 100% CATFISHED by this airbnb. please read!!!
Issues that we had with the place:
the place was NOT clean even though you pay for a cleaning fee (the kitchen countertops and window sill were sticky/ walking around barefoot in the airbnb for 5min made our feet black/ the curtains smelled like cat urine/ the carpet had cigarette bud stains & hair)
false advertising (no pillows or blankets on the couch as the listing photos show, the airbnb listed a bunch of places and locations that it was near in its photos while in reality those places were 35+min away via metro/there is no tree outside of the bathroom window *looks like photoshop on the listing photo* and just opens up to the busy street down below and there is a blurry window on the bathroom door that allows you to see into the bathroom where someone is showering because the shower curtain only covers the side facing away from the door thus you are left exposed to people walking by the bathroom in the airbnb/they say that up to 6 people can stay at the airbnb but I have no idea how they say that if there was only one bed that could fit two, a small cot, and a couch/the area was not at all how the airbnb was portraying it because the front of the airbnb apartment is covered in grafitti, located in a rougher looking part of berlin, and the front door to the apartment complex entrance does not lock and so there are 4 locks on the your airbnb door to "make up for it"/no where on the listing does it say that you cannot change how many people come because the listing gives you the option to change the number of people coming even after you confirm and book the airbnb, and so we booked with four people in mind but they declined our change to three because the minimum is "apparently" four and so we were stuck paying for four even though only three people came - we were not aware of this fact prior to booking)
the only pros were that they responded and communicated quickly with us and gave us free towels. In general, we would not recommend this airbnb.
