BEWARE! Book here if you wish to be scammed by the host, sleep in filth, get eaten alive by mosquitos, and get responses from your host days late.
Where to begin. This apartment was DISGUSTING. The shower was full of black mold, the toilet looked like it never had been cleaned (poop stains inside of it!) the linens were all stained, and there was blood smeared on the bedroom walls!!
Half the things in the apartment were broken. Cabinets, tv, entertainment system.
We were SO excited about this place, and the ONLY redeeming quality was the location and canal view. Our host sent us the code hours after we arrived, which meant we were sitting outside of the apartment with all of our luggage for HOURS waiting for him to message us the code. Completely unacceptable. Then, we get inside to find out that the tv does not work, the “queen bed” was two twin beds pushed together (kinda defeats the purpose of a romantic vacation when you’re sleeping with your partner on separate twin beds!)
Among the issues with the apartment were issues with the host himself. When we initially addressed the problems we were having with Mario before going to air bnb support, he was rude and hostile towards us. We ended up getting a refund because of the terrible misrepresentation of the apartment.
Now, the day after we have left the apartment, Mario is trying to scam us out of $300.00 saying that we “broke glass” in his apartment. We left this place in better condition than we found it (which was awful condition to begin with) and now the host is upset about us getting a refund so he is trying to come up with a way to scam us out of our money. We are completely appalled with this and would HIGHLY advise future customers to look elsewhere.... you can read through his other reviews and find similar complaints. Host does not care about you having a good time, he simply wants your money and will lie his way into getting it.
