The place was ok not the best but if you have to you could make it work. Be prepared to bring an iron, toilet paper, sponge to wash dishes or disposable dishes. If you need ice you will have to go and purchase because the host thinks built up ice in the freezer shows the refrigerator is working.
I was a bit surprised by the unkempt appearance of the host when he arrived and that should have been my cue but I was taught not to judge.
I tried to communicate to him that he needed to clean the freezer and that the tv did not work the very next morning through Airbnb. I did not receive a response until late afternoon. He did not even call or message to say he was coming he just came which I found to be very intrusive.
When I attempted to address the issues he asked me to communicate by WhatsApp. I refused and he immediately became unfriendly.
He arrived at the apartment inappropriately dressed in a pair of extremely short shorts, hair was unkempt as if he dragged himself out of bed and was annoyed. That was a bit much for us but I continued to be professional.
While I was addressing the concerns he kept playing with the remote and staring at the tv until I had to tell him I need him to pay attention. He did not give us a clean sponge ( brown and dirty with food particles attached) for the dishes nor did he clean the freezer even after we spoke to him about it.
The surrounding area had a lot of garbage piled up, garbage bins overflowing. For the two days it just stayed there and was there before the weekend we found out.
This place was far from the center, I can admit that but if the host was a bit more courteous we could have made it work. I asked about his cancellation policy and he just said we can leave whenever we like.
After he left he started an endless argument by text messages, accusing us of breaking his tv and that an iron was not listed in the amenities. That was fine we could have purchased an iron but due to his aggressive behavior and continuous messages we started to feel unsafe. It was strange how this guy was jus happy going back and forth with two women about something so silly. I asked him to stop texting but he continued.
I understand this guy does not own the place he is a caretaker but his ill mannerism, intrusive behavior and his very disheveled appearance is enough to drive customers away.
