Despite the stylish interiors and central location, my husband and I were quite disappointed upon arrival to the apartment. We chose to book through the Air BnB website as we were seeking a more homely and personal touch, only later realising that the apartment is let through a larger letting group and not a personal home owner. I suspect the lettings are usually for party revellers as I was asked twice before arrival, both by message and over phone whether I intended for more than two people to stay as I would need to be charged more. All the rules and generic messages seemed quite patronising and unnecessary for a couple of professionals in their late 30s looking for a quiet weekend away. The apartment block exterior is quite forlorn looking but to be expected, however I was gutted to discover our apartment was at ground level at the entrance to the block, and that everyone entering the building could peer directly in to the two bedrooms of the place, which faced out on to the car park, a rusted air vent and a vacant lot. We subsequently kept the bedroom curtains closed for the duration of our three night stay. The lock box was convenient to access, however there were several issues upon arrival so in this case I would actually have preferred to deal with someone in person. The entry hall bulb was out, so the large interior of the apartment was in darkness, and I had to switch it out with a bulb in the second bedroom in order to see. There was no dryer as advertised, and we had bypassed several laundry facilities on our journey from an Air BnB in north Donegal as we had believed we could wash and dry our laundry upon arrival. While the host did offer to dry our laundry in his drier in a block nearby, he sounded suitably vague about what apartment we were in, whether it had a washer dryer, and there was laughter and many voices in the background during our call so I didn't feel comfortable leaving my clothes with a stranger. The electric fireplace did not work either and I very much felt this was an 'end of season' stay where things had been left unaddressed. My husband also had to scrub out the toilet in the main bathroom upon arrival as it had been stained by a previous user. The skirting sheet covering the base of our bed was grubby, grey, looked like it hadn't been changed in quite a while and had maroon stains on it which looked like it could be dried blood. Some of the soft furnishing covers in the living room smelt sour and needed to be washed or changed. The lock to the balcony door was misaligned so that it was almost impossible to open, and when we managed it we never were able to lock it again. On our first night a noisy drunken group gathered beside my car outside our bedroom at almost midnight and eventually my husband and a neighbour had to go outside and ask them to leave. I did not sleep well that night. This apartment boasts style over substance and was let down by so many details that a careful Air BnB host typically would not miss. A place suited more to hens, stags or groups of younger people, and not the relaxing or secure haven we hoped it would be.
