Our stay here unfortunately was an absolute nightmare. After traveling to over 42 (mostly undeveloped) countries in the past 5 years, I must say that I was shocked that this ended up being my worst airbnb experience to date.
Firstly the host was not in town, we were checked in by a woman named Veronica, who informed us that she was also leaving town during our stay. That should have been our first red flag. Who exactly is running this place?
Not even 12 hours into our stay, the power fuse blew. We were unable to contact the host due to the lost internet connection. When we finally contacted the host from a local cafè, we were advised that the issues would not be fixed until the next morning! So after one night in the dark, we finally awoke to power again.
The internet however was not recovered. 2 of the hosts helpers attempted to restore internet to no luck. During our 4 night stay, 2.5 of the days were spent without any internet whatsoever. Problematic when you’re traveling internationally, and have guests needing to make daily contact with their children, jobs, and other loved ones.
The host offered a mobile phone to remedy the situation which we acknowledge. However, when you’re asking guests to pay top dollar, you better produce on the amenities you said you would provide. Had they simply not rented the room knowing that they didn’t have enough employees to assist if issues arose, I wouldn’t have to write this poor review. If you choose to stay here, have a backup plan, you’ve been warned.
