The apartment is very nice, airy and light. the view is very very nice! check in was easy and communication quite good.
the things that I expected to have for the price were a microwave, a kettle and a toaster which the apartment does not include. also the TV is quite small and a bit old. I was not able to tune it to any channels, however there was an Apple TV which I was able to use for Netflix but this needed to be unplugged nearly every day to reset it as it would get blocked and frozen. I also had to move the TV as there was no plug for the Apple TV as well as the TV itself (although this was quite straight forward to do).
overall my stay was comfortable and agreeable but unfortunately the end was quite upsetting. I needed to stay longer than I had booked and so I asked Christopher and made sure he did not have any bookings. he assured me it was fine so I booked the extra week on Airbnb for him to confirm. the next thing I know, 36 hours before my initial end date, he told me that he accepted another 1 month booking, leaving me in the lurch and panicking as to where I was going to sleep 36 hours later.... I was so disappointed and spoke to Christopher about it on the phone but nothing changed. He then proceeds to tell me at 9pm the day before I was asked to leave (at 10am) that I was supposed to clean the whole place inside out including washing all sheets and towels before 10am! my only solace was that I was able to leave a bit later than 10am (after asking). I was shocked that I was supposed to clean the whole apartment for the next tenant who was checking in at the same time I was checking out. I was under the impression that Airbnb insured that all hosts would clean to COVID standards, but apparently not at all in this case. How can I trust that the previous tenant cleaned the place well enough for my own stay? surely, it is not the responsibility of the tenant to ensure COVID cleaning standards for the next tenant on behalf of the host. I told Christopher that I would not have the time to clean properly as he only told me late the night before, keeping in mind that I also had to pack everything quickly while trying to quickly find another place to stay.
such a shame it ended like this as I enjoyed staying there despite the lack of appliances.
Christopher apologised to me (and offered to pay my Yango move of 60Kr which I refused) but this unfortunately did not change any of the circumstances he put me in.
