Just one day before my arrival I received a message from the host that the washing machine was broken and that there would be some very loud construction work taking place on the building that would last all day, every day during my stay. I was offered a full refund, which I would have taken, but since it was the high season it was too late to find something else, particularly in Polanco. I consulted with the staff at Airbnb, but there was nothing they could do. I hope that this doesn't happen to others.
