I was offered an “upgrade” right before my check-in. So I assume where I stayed is at least as good as this listing, and yet, I wouldn’t stay there again.
First, the information provided is not quite accurate. There’s no TV. There’s a monitor but it’s not wired and not functional as a TV. There’s no hand soap. Well, the bottle was there but it was empty. Guest access is not via lockbox. The door is simply unlocked when you arrive, and the key is in the apartment. There’s a chair and a tiny desk but I wouldn’t call it laptop friendly.
Second, the stay is not quite comfortable. The bed is basically a thin pad on top of a frame. The bathroom sink is nearly clogged. I’m relatively fine with these, though. After all, you get what you paid for.
Finally, and this bothers me the most, as it turns out, the management of the building explicitly prohibits any sorts of lodging including Airbnb. There’s a sign saying that at the front of the building, and someone living on the same floor showed me that. That guy was friendly and apparently his experience with guests in the past are good overall, but I don’t know how other residents in the building feel about it.
I guess the biggest thing for me is that I'm not sure if I can trust the host, who provides false information and pays little respect to the local community. Having said that, if you are looking for a place to just crash for the night and you are on a budget, this listing may be a realistic option for you.
