First the good things, the apartment is nice and cozy and is located in a great location that is really close to the train station.
Next coming to the issues with the apartment:
1. The first issue with the host came up when I decided to message her about body wash that was missing in the apartment and she replied in a very rude manner asking us to get our own body wash.
2. In a second instance, as is the general policy in other Airbnb’s we have stayed in, the tourist tax is usually left in a place by the television or the dining table for the host to take. In our instance, we left the tourist tax on a spot beside the television on the first second day of our stay and came back later in the day to see 15 euros missing. I decided to message the host asking if she had come by to take the tourist tax from the table. The host responded in a very inappropriate way saying that we accused her of stealing the money and responded by threatening to kick us out of the house in the middle of the night. As we did not want to get into a situation where we would be out on the road in the middle of the night in a foreign country unknown to us, I quietly left her a message apologizing for the misunderstanding, letting her know that is was one of us in the group that took the money (even though this did not happen. We quietly wanted to get out of this situation and stop her harassment towards us).
The chat history between me and the host will detail each of the above instances and will explain the manner in which the conversation took place.
All in all, while others may have great experiences with the host and the home, we ended up having a really bad experience that ruined our trip to Venice.
