We didn't have a good experience due to the level of noise and the interaction with the host in trying to resolve this issue.

The apartment is located in a 2nd floor, above bars and clubs in a street with very busy nightlife. We wished we would have known as we would have booked in different place.

There was a music festival in square right under the apartment with a stage and live bands performing.

When the music festival started, a couple of hours after check-in, it was clear that we were not heading for a good night, therefore we contacted the host and proposed to him an amicable solution that we would honor the payment for the first night, if we would refund us for the additional nights, so that we could find a more suitable accommodation.

The host was not understating of the noise issue; his argument was that everybody knows the city center has noise.

With all windows closed, the noise was unbearable. We also hear noise coming from the neighbors until early morning and someone rang the apartment doorbell at 4am.

Closing all windows to try to block the noise out (didn't solve the problem) created another issue: heat.

In short, there were 5 of us and nobody could get any sleep until 6am.

By 9am the next day, we contacted the host again to discuss the issue as we could not spend another night like this without any sleep. Again, we offered him to reach an amicable solution, so we could find a more quite accommodation.

The host was not understanding of the issue and seemed uncooperative. We decided it was best to vacate the unit immediately. We followed the host instructions to return the keys.

We moved into a hotel, incurring in unplanned transportation and hotel fees.

We followed Airbnb's Claim process and they granted the refund for the additional 2 nights.
