We arrived to a hot apartment and a fridge that wouldn't warm up our drinks. By the time we left, the main bedroom in the apartment still wouldn't cool down and my two kids sleeping on the sofa bed had bed bug bites.
There is only one (8,000 BTU) air conditioner for the apartment; located in the living room. When we arrived, our greeter turned on the a/c for us and it only got hotter. When he left, we noticed that the a/c exhaust was not hooked up and therefore was emitting all of the hot air into the living room. We had to figure out how to properly setup the a/c and find the necessary parts and exhaust outlet. During our 3 night stay, the a/c was never able to properly cool the entire apartment. In fact, the apartment temperature was barely below the outside temperature. This issue along with pictures were reported to Airbnb. To note, we did our best to keep out/off any heat emitting sources to include closing any sun-facing shutters, limiting our use of lights, and keeping the restroom door closed. Also, opening windows was not an option because the area is so noisy at all times.
As for the fridge, by the end of our first evening, our drinks were still at room temperature. Our drinks didn't cool down until the following morning. The fridge seemed to work fine afterwards.
And then the bed bugs... My two kids slept on the sofa bed since it is in the living room (where the a/c is located). At first we thought the bites were mosquitoes. The next night, we made sure that there were no mosquitoes in the apartment. Yet, the kids woke up with more bites that perfectly matched images we researched.
I have stayed at several Airbnb listings without making a stink. But this one takes the cake. Stay away.
