Unfortunately our experience was terrible. We booked this apartment despite it having no reviews because it appeared clean, simple and in a good location. The host seemed to have experience from other listings so we trusted it would be okay (we should have read the other reviews).
First, while the price was reasonable, the host requires a 55€ cash cleaning fee upon arrival. This seemed a little sketchy but we proceeded nonetheless. The host was not good at communicating and took a while to respond to calls and texts. He finally sent a friend to show us the place and give us the keys. The friend then took our cash for the “cleaning fee”.
The entire place felt filthy! It appeared it was not cleaned regularly like it did in the photos. The walls and doors were scuffed and dirty, the sheets had stains on them, there were huge holes in the frame of the bathroom door (big enough for a mouse to crawl through). The wifi connection would not work in the bedroom, and towels felt like sandpaper. We also saw what appeared to be mold or mildew on the ceiling of the bedroom. Overall, I feel this host would rather collect his cash and do the absolute bare minimum than to actually provide a nice stay for his guests.
Even little things like fresh paint, clean sheets, and soft towels would have helped the overall experience.
In short, we ended up getting a partial refund from Airbnb and booked another place. Stay elsewhere if you can!
