I thought about writing this review for a long time, but I hope our situation will help future guests.
Check-in was very straightforward and Sinan was very friendly. He gave us tips for our stay, briefly showed us the accommodation and explained the process when checking out. The apartment is comfortably furnished, but the furniture is all a bit older. It quickly gets stuffy in the apartment and if neighbors are present it is very noisy.
Now to our problem: In the bathroom on the upper floor there was unfortunately black mold everywhere, which has already eaten through the floor to the kitchen on the lower floor. On the first night, an unpleasant, stuffy smell spread through the mold, which in asthmatics (as in our case) very quickly leads to coughing fits. If you keep the window open, the street is very noisy, so sleep is not very restful. When we informed Joana & Sinan of this, we were offered another cleaning. However, since the mold has already spread too far, such cleaning would not be enough to solve the problem, which I also told Joana during her unannounced visit.
Because of this, we contacted Airbnb support and canceled our trip prematurely in order not to take any further health risks. Our decision met with incomprehension from Joana and Sinan and there was no apology for this situation.
I think the situation would have been bearable for a long weekend, but our stay was planned for a month and thus this situation was not acceptable. Joana also informed me that such problems have often occurred, so I wonder why no conclusions have been drawn so far.
