If you are American don’t stay here !!! The owner Ian is extremely rude and treats people even his staff badly . Adriana quit and send me all the text messages between them
Both .
He was pushing for me to do an early check in but my previous Airbnb said I could leave my luggage there until their listed check in time on Airbnb listing . Then he said they would waive the check in early fee and they needed me to come between 12-1 pm .
My brother that lives in Berlin was gonna get off early and come drive me and also help me with the luggage .
Since th eh wanted me to come earlier I agreed with Adriana to come at noon and that I would arrive a little early and wait for Jeremy , which I also texted and he said he didn’t have wifi !!
I called and texted Jeremy . I waited two hours and they k ew since I booked that I had a disability . E remarks he made about my handicap and about Americans being a nightmare and assumptions about me being rich and comparing me to a horse , and then making me wait two hours with no where to sit under the sun in front of the building . Jeremy texted back that because I didn’t pay the early check in he wasn’t coming .
I screen shot the Airbnb message saying they would waive the fee because Jeremy had other plans later at the usual check in time .
I paid am Uber and waited under the sun against my Medicines advice to avoid sun and finally he arrived and I was being reprehended my Ian the non listed owner , telling me I never communicated or asked if noon worked and told me I was arrogant and had high expectations etc . He literally made me shake and I was so worried because he was using this €40 as hostage to let me in but I had no cash as it was not what we agreed upon . Jeremy forgot the key at home and he gave me no option but to get in his car and head to pick up the keys at his home . I tried to be friendly but was uncomfortable .
I tried to just be nice but he took it later to another level . I texted him things I had to clean up and do si ce it was not clean and he then texted me at three am asking w if I wanted to a club . I was asleep .
I told him not to text me about personal things anymore .
Once I got in to the apartment Ian had him come back and make me fill out paper work I never had to fill for any other Airbnb !
He gave me one small towel and two floor mats .
I texted Ian only about a moldy water brota filter he out out for guests and then I realized I had been drinking v from a moldy filter and he literally told me to get out .
He also told me to go buy a filter myself .
I don’t know what’s up but this is the second place in Berlin asking for money not listed on their Airbnb listing and using the extra charge as a way of not letting you in . Like a hostage deal !
I left on the second day and I was relieved as he had send me a App message threatening to physically move me out and refused to communicate on the Airbnb platform so I blocked him !
I found out from neighbors , he is not allowed to Airbnb on this property and that they would report it .
So much drama!!
Glad to leave !!!
I’ll pray for you Ian . To find peace and love in your heart
