Firstly we had a rocky stay at Kukima, previous to making a reservation we discussed our plans for having additional guests which was agreed with by the host.. The night before we arrived we received a message asking to pay additional cash upon arriving which was not what was previously agreed with, reluctant but not wanting to disrupt our plans we agreed having felt left with no other option. Secondly we have received messages from the host indicating the state at which the accommodation was left as a pig sty which has made me feel quite annoyed, the host made points about leaving recyclables in the recycle bin, trash in the trash bin and comments about the linen having to be cleaned, none of which was mentioned in the conditions, we pride ourselves in our cleanliness and took additional steps to insure we left the property in a good condition including,vacuuming, mopping, washing and drying the towels, faceclothes etc and leaving the kitchen with as little dirty dishes as possible.
My advise would to be aware of these issues and make certain your completely aware of all the hosts expectations which should be made clearly upon arriving.
This experience will definitely change the way we use air bnb in the future particularly when making a booking for an entire place, something we will be doing from here forward will be taking before and after photos of the complete premises as to make sure that if any issues do arise we have some evidence to reflect on.
I hope this helps anyone thinking about making a reservation at Kukima, this is merely a review based on our experience and is not a reflection on air bnb whatsoever.
We use air bnb frequently and have enjoyed many fantastic stays and will continue to do so but with more caution.
