The room was in a house in a narrow suburban street, with close neighbours on either side. A large noisy building site was across the road of the narrow street only metres from our bedroom window. The room was inches from the front door, and when there was persistent knocking to our accommodation, which my partner opened to , he was greeted with “ Who are you?”by an unknown person, supposedly Linda who was in the hallway before opening the front to a visitor.
Outside our room which had no locks, in the passage way,a chain separated the accomodation from the rest of the house where the owners lived. This created a very unwelcoming atmosphere, especially after the unfriendly greeting.
We feel these points could have all been avoided, particularly in relation to the huge building site, only metres away from the bedroom window.
Due to the omission of these on Airbnb, it caused us great disappointment and has the potential of creating unnecessary angst with future guests.
