First off, amazing view. But there were a few things that were disappointing about this Airbnb.
1. It’s a massive walk-up apartment. Top floor (maybe 6 floors, I counted 13 levels, some longer than others) I didn’t think there would be an elevator, but I didn’t know how many stairs there would be… A LOT! This was a big surprise during our check-in when we had to carry up our luggage.
2. There were little to no essentials provided. No condiments, no coffee, no laundry detergent (we had to ask).
3. Noise. At night, we could clearly hear our neighbors talking outside until 2am. All the windows and doors closed, but the noises travel very well through these apartments walls. ALSO, there’s a very loud hot water heater right outside the apartment that goes off whenever someone in the building uses water.
4. Cleanliness. I don’t think anyone has deep cleaned the apartment. The surfaces are cleaned, but there’s dust everywhere. It was gross. I found bugs exoskeletons throughout the apartment, thinking they were bed bugs, but they weren’t. If the apartment was cleaned, I wouldn’t have had that scare.
Unless you like walking 5-6 flights of stairs every time you leave the apartment, I wouldn’t recommend this place.
