I usually don’t negative review on Airbnb, but we had enough issues that I think it is important to provide an accurate assessment of our stay.
Simos our host assured us that we could walk from the bus station to the flat. That was terrible advice. It was a long uphill walk on a rather busy street without sidewalks the whole way. In the 90+ degree heat with our luggage, suggesting a cheap taxi ride would have been so much better. Instead, we arrived sweaty, tired and frustrated.
We were not given the flat we paid for: we did not get a view of the port from the living room: without explanation, we got another flat with a different view, AND, the air conditioner didn’t work properly so someone had to sleep on the sofa. Because the address was the same I didn’t realize it wasn’t the flat we had chosen, but when I inquired about the change in flat the explanation was not satisfactory.
The location was handy because it is close to the port, but luckily we didn’t take the host’s advice that it was an easy walk to our ferry (which it wouldn’t have been) and instead took a cab. It really wasn’t a very nice part of town.
It was handy to have a washer and dryer.
