Pros
1. Great location, amazing restaurants around, park, children's play ground and train station are near.
2. air-conditioning in the room
3. Elevator in the building.
4. Newly renovated bathroom
5. on the street but quiet when windows are closed.
6. Comfortable beds and mattresses
7. Small Fridge in the room.
Cons-
1. Highly inaccessible to anyone in a stroller or wheelchair as the main door doesn't open and the lift is very small.
2. No private space for cooking or any kitchen area or any other facilities other than just the room. There is a coffee machine which is in hallway and is paid I think, not sure.
3. The entrance pictures on the listing are edited and misleading and it is quite dirty and surprising in reality. Also, pictures show breakfast but we didn't have any information about it and to be fair it wasn't listed on our booking.
4. Communication with the host wasn't great. I was locked out on the first night with my family including a 2 year old child and it was 11 pm. Claudia did resolve and open the door virtually, but before she did that, she was really yelling at me on the phone and I was quite stresses because of this. She keeps insisting to follow her instructions, which I did, but English is not her first language and she DOESN'T WANT TO hear the other person, when you are talking.
Her behavior did surprise me and I understand she might have many guest who can create trouble but we were a family and instead of being calm she was yelling at me over the phone. I was a bit afraid after and noticed that every where in the room/bathroom, her rules about her property and fines in many languages. Quite pushy approach, it feels more like a dormitory than a Airbnb.
5. I asked for an extra towel on the 3 day stay in a 3 person booking where she gave only 2 towels and later said she didn't see my message which was strange for me.
6. An hour before our check-out she was at the property and the WiFi disappeared suddenly. she did say it was under repair but felt like a very strange coincidence too, like she wants us to be out.
7. Her check out is 10 am and is quite strict as I understood.
8. I had to join the single bed and realized it was quite dirty under it when I moved the beds, many hair and dust and I have taken pictures also for the same and sent to Airbnb.
All in all it was mixed experience, it's merely a room with toilet/bathroom with minimal needs. but for the price of almost around 160 a night (including everything ), I personally did not see the value of it. And I had the triple room which was bigger than other rooms as I was told.
