The good: The house was clean and Monica responds quickly to any questions.
It is located the middle of the small town.
The room is like tiny hotel room. The kitchen and bathroom basics are present and this is convenient.
The bad:
I told her a while ago that my partner would join (he arrived 2 days after me)
As soon as I saw the place, I realised that the space really is too small for 2 persons. (Especially the 1.20 by 1.80 bed)
Because of the size and lack of light (there are no windows), we decided to cancel the reservation. She lost 3 days of income because of this. She then sent some very inappropriate and unprofessional messages.
After checking in, I had also asked her where the normal sized towels were to shower. I asked her if she had some bigger ones in the house.
She said she could bring some but I told her it was okay and I could use several of the smaller ones. Nonetheless, she then messaged that she was already on her way to bring me bigger towels. Her entering was awkward and made me uncomfortable.
After I cancelled, she requested 150EUR through Airbnb. She wanted me to pay 50EUR for the taxi she took to bring me the bigger towels (that I didn't request) - she also wanted me to pay her babysitter.
She then also wanted me to pay for a clogged sink.
She then continued to ask for money and stating I had a party and she found cigarettes and rice in the sink?!
These are blatant lies, I don't smoke. I left the house in a perfect condition and regret not having filmed it before I checked out.
Very strange situation. I can't believe she made up these lies.
I guess she didn't understand the cancellation policy she selected.
On the bright side, the Airbnb resolution team has been very helpful and they told me that they don't encourage this behaviour from their hosts.
I think you can stay at this place, but make sure you don't change your plans because she will be VERY angry and harass you for money.
The place is quite expensive for what it is. There are much better options around.
