Check in was easy and the apartment is great. Good use of space and a really unique layout. The loft feel was fun and there is an outside patio that’s accessible through a ladder and a small window.
Unfortunately, a few hours after check-in there was a single ring of the doorbell and a man (not joseph nor his cleaner who had originally greeted us) immediately entered with a key. He told us that there was a sewer leak from our bathroom into his apartment downstairs! He began working on the bathroom plumbing and drainage. This went on for over an hour with little communication. As this was the only bathroom, it was highly disruptive. After a while, he told us the bathroom was not functional. this happened so late in the evening it was difficult to reach Joseph so we resorted to contacting Airbnb directly and canceling the reservation. Joseph did get back to us & approved this right away which was appreciated.
Hopefully this issue will be resolved for future guests and stays.
