The place does not look exactly like the photos.
There is no air conditioning(which is mentioned in the ad) and the host did not meet us at the place. This was my parents first time using an Air BnB so for weeks prior I begged the host to meet them but she refused, and Murphy’s law things went wrong.
The apartment is very hot at night with no fans. The windows provide an okay breeze however the noise from the street and people is too loud to keep them open. For the three nights we were there we tossed and turned consistently and usually we can sleep through most noises included parties next door, people scream and crying in the street (we know the host is not responsible for this).
There is consistent construction work in the neighborhood starting at 7am and an abandoned building across from the apartment. There was not enough toilet paper for five people...only 2 rolls and no paper towels provided.
The WiFi didn’t work for 2 days and the host had to come in and reset it. It finally worked after we reset it again after the host coming in and fixing it.
The balcony is nice but there is a bird that squawks and sounds like a monkey.....this ranges at all hours of the day, but usually quiets down at 8pm.
The place is relatively clean. However because there is no air conditioning windows need to be kept open and lots of flys enter the apartment as a result.
Decent location. Lots of walking up and down the street/hill to get to and from the apartment. Not good for older individuals.
We always use Airbnb’s and this one was a let down. Almost checked into a hotel.
