You aways expect some quirks with an airbnb stay, but I think it's reasonable to expect a clean and functional space. This flat failed on both points. The bathroom had brown and orange and black mold growing in the shower grout, the shelf above the sink was very sticky with something. The door to the bathroom didn't close unless you heaved it up over the sill by the door handle...ordinarily a quirk except that the inside handle was crusted...I dont want to think with what! The bathroom light sometimes went on, sometimes not, sometimes it would flicker. When we contacted
them with our concerns about the safety of the lights, we were told that
they were aware of it, but couldn't find parts, and not to worry about the
safety! The bathroom fan also didn't work, and the closet doors were so broken that we couldn't open them. The kitchen cabinet knobs were coated with sticky fingerprints, there were crumbs and food stains inside the
cupboards, and grease all over the backsplash. Basically everything in the
kitchen looked or felt sticky and dirty. There were even its of food left stuck
in the dirty kitchen sink.

We were informed that they were aware that the unit needed renovation,
but they couldn't do anything until later because it was fully booked! No apology for not letting us know in advance.

We were also a little concerned about the safety of the stairs, (which we were assured were completely safe). A couple of the treads, including the top one, were pitched downward instead of level, and another rocked back and forth when you stepped on it.

I truly wish that we had been informed of the condition of the flat prior to
paying...we certainly would not have chosen to stay there. By the time we
arrived and discovered the shape it was in there were no other places to
stay that we could afford.

On a more positive note, they were very helpful and accomodating in terms of check in times, and ordering us a taxi

Sorry to go on like this...we are by no means "clean freaks," and have never before submitted a negative review.
