I don't like to write bad reviews, but in this case I want future guests to know.
The place didn't look like on the photos (I guess the photos are pretty old), inside the house was very dark.
The place was not clean as to expect from a Japanese house, in the kitchen on the cooking area where some dry oil stains, in the room upstairs where some dead bugs on the floor and on the shelfs.
There were two buckets to put on the floor for when it's raining.
We stayed only about 15min in this place. We felt very uncomfortable, cancelled the reservation and left very quick.
We did contact the AirBnb Support, but as we left without taking pictures, we could not get a refund. The AirBnb Support suggested us to contact the host and ask for a refund. The host said he cannot refund but offered us to come back anytime. We told him that we cannot feel comfortable to sleep in this house and asked again for a refund. And the host said: "If you write a good review, I will refund half the price".
How can I trust this host if they want to buy a good review?
I wish they will at least use our money to do some maintenance and proper cleaning.
It has been a very stressful experience for us. We learned that it is important to contact the AirBnb Support before leaving the place and cancelling the reservation.
