Cons - The day before check in I messaged the host to ask when I should expect check instructions since we had not communicated since the initial booking (months before). On the day of, the host was messaged 1-2 hours before check in, called, and finally Airbnb was contacted due to no response. We were waiting with our toddler. They tried to locate host by message and calling. About an hour and a half after check in, we were sent instructions. No explanation for the delay. The A/C was broken. It was fixed our last week (we stayed 4 months) which we understand was mostly out of the host’s control. The weather was nice most days so it was not a major issue.
Pros - after the initial check-in issue, hosts were responsive. Nice decor, fully equipped, comfortable furniture, and well insulated. The building is unique and beautiful, close to bars, restaurants, shopping, metro, groceries, and parks! We especially loved listening to the music from the street performers below.
