Hate to leave a bad review, because I almost never do it… The listing should mention that there is an extremely busy and noisy construction site on the neighbouring building, which can be clearly seen outside the bedroom window.
From 8am every morning, I was woken up by the loud sound of jackhammering, the crane moving around equipment and materials, workers constantly shouting and the apartment walls vibrating. It was a nightmare to say the least. Far from a relaxing holiday. I couldn’t even enjoy with a cup of coffee during in the living room.
I altered my accommodation dates and left early because I couldn’t stand being there any longer.
Unfortunately after calling the host, he did not agree to give me a full refund which I believe is the fairest action to take. The host lied to me and took my money. No one in their right mind would book this place if the listing mentioned the noise and vibration coming from the construction site.
I was on and off with Airbnb on the phone for 4 hours and had the senior supervisor contact me to resolve this drama. In the end I was given a discount coupon which does not make up for the cost of the accommodation.
It’s a great apartment but don’t Airbnb the place without informing people of the excessive and distributive noise, otherwise it is blatantly misleading and false advertising.
