A strong smell of chemicals was the first thing I noticed when I entered the apartment. After opening up a window and airing it out for 30 min the smell still didn’t go away and wasn’t any less intense. In addition, whatever was in the air started to irritate my eyes and my throat to the point where I couldn’t bare being inside another minute. I decided It wouldn’t be safe for me to spend the night breathing in whatever I was smelling/breathing. When I brought up the issue to the Host they didn’t even try to help, offer a solution, or apologize. Instead they immediately got defensive and told me that my claims were false. As if I had something to gain by changing my plans at 11pm, getting a last minute hotel, then having to deal with back and forth calls until 2am with Airbnb support. Luckily Airbnb reimbursed me completely as I didn’t stay in the apartment at all, and they even reimbursed me 30% of the hotel I had to pay for last minute because of this.
