This listing is a double to a listing I had considered till I read a review about construction above the unit. Different host name same photos. I didn't book the one with the bad review regarding noise with the host Claudia,. I booked the other listing with the host Grace.. i thought I was booking a unit lower down in the building.. It was not. This seems shady to have 2 separate listing for the exact same space and airbnb doesn't allow it.
The noise was starting at 730am and got worse as the day went on. The workers were smoking and that bled through to the unit strongly. It was unbearableso I called to cancel right away. It took airbnb to the end of the 2nd day to give me some answers so we suffered through while in limbo... in that time I went up to see the unit and it is so far from being over. It'sbare to the studs with no floors and in parts is open to the elements as it is the top unit. It will be like this for a very long time and honestly the unit should not be allowed to be listed for the weekdays while work is being done.
The unit itself is a great location but the shower and toilet area have large windows open to the city. Looks great but everyone can see you doing your business and for women upper body nudity is definitely visible. There is a beautiful open view to enjoy from the sun room with lovely sliding windows. But the bathroom should have frosting or something. If you think it's no big deal because of the open view think again, it's not safe from eyes as below the building in view is a children's preschool of sorts, and if you can see them they can see you.
Lastly we never got the wifi but I had data so it was OK.
Aside from these key issues the unit is nice and spacuous and the beds were good. Air flow was great when windows were open. In a year from now it would be a good place to stay. But stay clear in the meantime.
