This is a very lengthy review but I had a variety of experiences here.
We were greeted upon arrival by Richard who was great. Gave great tips about taxi driver ahead of time(don’t let them overcharge you). Our first two nights were great. The other reviews were very accurate, this is the perfect location for the downtown area but IT IS NOT for light sleepers! We knew that going into it and were fine, but the partiers go to bed after 2am and the sweepers come around 7am so just be aware if that is a concern for you. All was well until our last day when we weren’t able to get into the apartment. We reached out to Richard via Airbnb with no response, so we went to the bar downstairs to see if they could help(also owned by the same people). They gave us other keys to try but the mechanism was broken inside. Long story short, the bartender tried to open, the owner of the bar across the street tried to open, scaled the neighboring apartment to get into our room to try to unlock it, tried several other attempts totaling around 3 or 4 hrs before a locksmith was called (at this point is was around 9-10pm). The host finally reached out directly and said his brother and locksmith were coming. They removed the lock but did not provide a new one and suggested we just put a chair under the door. At this point, it was really late and we had to get up at 4am for a flight and just wanted to be done with the fiasco as we felt we weren’t being listened to when we said it was not just the keys the entire night. No alternative was offered (we also did not ask because again had to get up early). There was also a lock to get into the floor with one other room so we chose to take the risk. (And by the way the chair did not fit under the lock so we had a crazy contraption. ) I understand this was a rare event, but was very displeased with the way the situation was handled and just wanted to bring awareness to it. Overall the stay would have been good had we not encountered the issue.
