That was the worst AirBnB experience I ever had.
1) Industrialization, Urban Residence have hundreds apartments at this location, its a factory. I did not find the homeness, the uniqueness and love which I usually find on AirBnB. Its an expensive Hotel, not more.
2) I arrived on Wednesday, the worst was the night from Friday to Saturday: On floor above, partying was ongoing until 4 o clock in the morning.
3) When I pay for AirBnB, everything is covered, including taxes and cleaning. That was not the case with Urban Residences. Arrived on site, I a was asked to do an additional payment.
4) When I booked Urban Residences, I have received numerous email asking me to create a Profile on a non-AirBnB website, and purchase additional services. I found it so aggressive that I did ask to stop sending me eMails. Thats not an AirBnB spirit, thats a business maximising its profits.
While the rooms have been good, right in the centre with a great view, I would not book it again.
What I found funny was the big advertising poster at the entrance of Urban Residences. There have been a woman and her two big dogs in one of the apartments admiring the great view over Rotterdam. Well, when registering at the reception, I was informed that pets are not allowed in the rooms.
