The apartment looked like a dump. All the plants and nicely finished touches are all an illusion. When I got there, the front door had half its paint peeled off and building looked like it was recently bombed and poorly renovated. It felt very unsafe to go into to say the least b the apartment itself was another issue. The apartment door could open about 2 inches when locked, which is enough for someone to swipe the lock fully open. Inside the apartment didn’t have any plants or nice features shown in the photos. Additionally, the inside of the door had no door handle - you would have to pull the electronic lock pad to open it, which was not simple, especially with greasy hands. One of the bedroom balcony windows was not attached to its frame and balcony door wouldn’t fully close, so it was so loud in the apartment due to the high traffic noise directly outside of it. The hallway was dingy and dark. The place had a musty smell to it like a construction site. The kitchen is atrocious and the bathroom had a light that would flicker. Additionally, the electrical wiring is old and poorly placed, which can be very dangerous; the wifi was also nowhere to be found in the apartment incase you would need to connect Ethernet cable to it or reset it for whatever reason. I’m not sure how this host got so many good reviews - they are probably fake because the place is a complete dump. The host seems nice in the interactions but when you get to the place you will see that you have been duped. Thank God Airbnb refunded me my money after I sent them photos showing that the place is not in reality what it is presented to be on the Airbnb website by the host. Either host is unaware or clearly lying. Based on my interactions after booking and prior to stepping into the Airbnb, I think the host is clearly lying and is pretending to be unaware of the issues in the apartment.
