I've been traveling for the last 1.5yrs living out of Airbnbs so I have a pretty good sense of what makes a great Airbnb and this one is just ok. Too expensive for the value but nothing terribly egregious that made me leave midway.
Pros:
- location is very central
- full kitchen (except for a microwave)
- Wifi worked well
Cons:
- the door to get into the building is extremely difficult, it's ok once you get the hang of it but no one warned us at check in and we stood there for 20min trying to get in the door hurting our hands and waiting for someone to respond to us after we contacted the host company
- there are no trash cans in the bathroom
- one of the bedrooms upstairs doesn't unlock so there was no privacy
- the door to the laundry detergent compartment is broken and very dirty
- the toilet seat upstairs is broken
- although there are 2 bathrooms, you can only shower in one at a time if you want warm water with normal water pressure
- there is massive construction outside and we were not warned. when we asked the person who checked us in, she said "it's the city so it's expected"
We were missing a foot towel and someone did deliver this to our door, which is appreciated. Otherwise, I mentioned the above "con" list to the host company and was not helped in any way about it so going to post it here. Usually I don't and just do it privately but I think it's important in this situation so future guests know.
