After our stay I was really confused by all the positive reviews I had read and then when I looked back I realized there were very few recent reviews for a place that is seemingly always booked up.
Great, detailed instructions on how to find apartment floor but once we got there we couldn’t reach the host after messaging for 20 min and knocking/ringing doorbells on both doors on floor. We carried our luggage up several flights by ourselves after their listing said they would be available to help. Sat outside in apt floor for 20 min knocking on random people’s doors and messaging on Airbnb w no response. Luckily the other host happened to come home at this time and let us in the apt where he quickly retreated to his bedroom without saying much. We saw ourselves to the appropriate room based on pics in listing. Eventually other host came out and gave us a brief tour. Kitchen was absolutely filthy with dishes and leftover food and overflowing trash cans and it stayed like this for the following day and a half. Smelly stench as well. There was also no way to lock our bedroom door and keep our belongings secure and locked up. I am sure they at one time had a lovely clean listing but this just didn’t match up with what we expected.
