Good things
bathroom—new, comfortable and beautiful—plenty of hot water.
bed clothes and mattress are new and comfortable. nice bed
electrical outlets all around the apartment
refrigerator, tea pot, coffee maker--all new and in perfect condition. The place was clean.
Sitting outside the apartment is relaxing. Although the sunset is not really visible, Oia is a short walk away—we went there to view the sunset.
The sea is a 20 minute-walk in the other direction. We went there on a calm day and swam in water that was more clear than I have ever seen.
The walls were brilliantly white, so mosquitos had nowhere to hide.
We were able to contact the owner only through the Airbnb website. It would have been nice to have a phone number or WhataApp/Telegrm contact. The last day there was a ceiling window that was being blown open and shut forcefully—if that continues, there is likely going to be problems. So far, only flakes of paint are falling. We had no way to contact the owner.
The owner organized a taxi to take us from the airport. When we arrived at the parking area near our apartment, there was no one to meet us for 15 minutes. We could probably have done just as well with a random taxi that we hired ourselves.
We asked the owner to bring us some tea, but none arrived.
There was no information about buses, restaurants in the area, or a map of the area.
The door between our apartment and the neighboring apartment was unlocked. My wife walked into someone else’s place. Upon seeing their things, she left immediately—we sent a message to the owner and the door was locked at some point that day.
