You should know that the owners standards of what is acceptable may or may not be your own. We arrived late night after traveling all day to be greeted with added city taxes to be paid in person outside of what we paid on Airbnb site which was not listed in the actual air bnb listing but only in an email the owner sent me b4 arriving and no hot water in the shower!
I do not like when people add things after the fact so you are surprised when you arrive. We like to use Airbnb so that we can pay for housing in advance and budget for the rest of the trip outside of lodging. So we ended up not paying the tax until we spoke with him the next day and washing up in the sink and wrote to him about the issue. The next morning he responded and came by and said he would have someone come look at the shower that evening or the next. He said to me continuously that it says in the Airbnb listing that there is an added city tax and I pulled it up for him and it was NOT there. It was only in an email that was sent close to arrival which I did not see. He didn’t recognize that it was a problem and false advertisement to not add it into the listing as so many other listings do!
We were only going to be there for 3nights so we thought that was unacceptable to even insensate postponing fixing the shower to the next day. No one came that day and no one came the next. He said it was impossible for someone to come and that since everything else was fine in the apartment we should have no worries. One day he offered to let us shower in 1 of the other apartments but this was not an option there forward because they had other guests coming. To me you would want to accommodate your guests that are already present but I guess we didn’t matter as much since they already received our money in advance.
To us hot water is a big deal and when you expect hot water to be there it’s even more of a big deal. When you know you are going to be camping or in meager accommodations you adjust but not when you spend over $100US a night to stay in an Airbnb vs a hotel, you expect Hot Water at minimum.
So no one came to fix the shower until the day we checked out. This was very disappointing to say the least.
