The ac is broken. The man who checked us in claimed that the ear piercing squeeling that started hadn't happened before, but I doubted that when he opened a panel and reached for a part and shook it saying "just do that". It kept squeeking intermittently throughout our stay, and since it was in the high 90s it was far too uncomfortable to stay in the very small apartment that had no breeze. We were expected to turn the ac off at night which seemed unreasonable since sleeping in the heat was next to impossible. But now I see that it was because of the ac screaming that woke us up every night.
I thought it very unfair that after paying a very high cleaning fee for a space that was MAYBE 15 feet square, we were expected to take the trash out, to some unknown location as we never saw a place for disposal and her check out directions on the table mentioned nothing about it.
Unfortunately, we started check in off on a bad foot. I didn't think to let Alessandra know that I could only communicate through wifi, which was oversight, but I can understand her frustration about my delayed responses. We never confirmed a check in time. The day before check in, when I told her 8pm would be our ideal check in time. I understood when she said that didn't work for her making a vague comment suggesting that if I couldn't chose a convenient time for her schedule to check in, I could just cancel. So, I suggested a different time. Without confirmation of any sort, I didn't show at the time I suggested since the only perameters she communicated were "before 8pm". The morning of, i still hadn't recieved a respose, so I planned to find somewhere to stop for wifi access along the way on our 3 hour drive. When I did hear from her, she had someone waiting at the appartment at the time she never confirmed. She only lists check in between two 2 hour windows, and I recieved a number of unprofessional messages about my character in relation to this mutual misunderstanding.
