I could not get a hold of the host using Airbnb or number provided in first message. After eventually making contact via Whats App I received check-in details on the day I landed. This was stressful.
The place was cold and there was a strong smell of damp. The walls and most places in the bathroom had mildew and signs of emerging mould and there were no utensils, or cups or bowls, basic amenities like a kettle or tea and coffee, or even sugar. The decorative lights did not work. Almost all of the furniture was visibly worn and old.
I don’t like leaving bad reviews but it seems like minimal effort has been put in to maintain the property or keeping the guests happy. Personally I always prefer Airbnb when I travel because they feel more authentic, but this is the first occasion where I felt as though maybe my money would have been better spent at a hotel.
