WARNING, BEDBUGS
Do not stay in this seemingly "cozy" Airbnb if you don't like bedbugs. The host is aware of the problem, but seems unwilling to do anything about it. The host is ignoring us completely.
The first odd sign of trouble was that the apartment wasn't ready when we arrived (at 1:30AM). The person letting us in stayed and folded sheets for a good 20 minutes. The payment for late arrival was cash and had to be made in person, as opposed to doing it through the app.
Upon discovering the bedbugs on our last night (bite marks had already appeared on us days earlier, this is when we put two and two together), we changed the sheets. Only then did we notice the horrid condition of one of the downstairs mattresses. It's completely stained, has a hole in it and frankly, it looks like it was taken right off the street. As our stay went on, we noticed that the apartment really was quite filthy. It really makes you wonder what the host is using the cleaning fee for.
The apartment's heating was turned off (in November), so it was cold even for us from up north. In addition to all of the above, there weren't any basic ameneties like salt, pepper and oil (as promised in the listing). If the host were to add a smoke alarm, it would probably ease the minds of future guests.
What's made everything much worse, is that the host has been extremely unhelpful and has straight up ignored both us and Airbnb for the better part of two weeks.
