In terms of making us feel welcome, giving us recommendations and generally making us feel like we were at home, this was the worst Airbnb we've stayed in.

It was confusing from the start: I had originally requested a different property, and Maria told me it was booked, even though it was still showing up available on Airbnb. However, she was insistent that it was booked and she offered us this one, which was in the location we wanted. However, it was only available for two of the three nights we were staying in Santorini, so we had to find a different place to stay for our last night. Maria was very communicative as she shoved us into this apartment, but once we tried to get in touch with her closer to our trip to confirm details, she was very short (bitchy, frankly), and difficult to communicate with.

When we arrived, we never did see/meet Maria. A guy showed us to our place, and basically just left us. There were no maps, no restaurant recommendations, nothing that we have come to love (and depend!) on our Airbnb hosts for.

The Wi-Fi was AWFUL. It never did work the entire time we were there. And the shower isn't separate from the rest of the bathroom - you have to move the trash can and shut the toilet lid to shower because it just sprays out into the (tiny) room and drains out in a hole in the floor. It was also VERY, VERY hot, and there is no AC - we were miserable for two nights, and we never did feel clean. It was all very gross.

This seemed like a very impersonal, corporate set-up - every single property in Oia I inquired about, Maria was the one who responded, and apparently all of them were full. We do not recommend staying here.
