The place is brand new and spectacular with new furniture and everything. It's very modern and they have put in a lot of effort in making it comfortable.
However the host neglected to inform us about issues that we felt were very necessary in making a decision to stay there. Firstly , he didn't mention that he had two loud dogs that live in the house and made it very very uncomfortable for us. There was dog fur in the kitchen ,bathroom towels and everywhere. He is obviously in love with his dogs and did not take into consideration his guests at all. He expected usto be comfortable with them because they were 'harmless'! Not everyone is a dog lover and I felt it was absolutely necessary for him to be honest about the dogs from the onset. We were hugely disappointed on our arrival when were greeted by two loud dogs.
The host neglected to mention that he had an office in the same house. As a result I was not even allowed to fry anything including an egg because it would disturb his staff, again this was not mentioned beforehand. There was no privacy or space at all because despite having been told it was ideal for couples and business travellers.

I was asked to leave a day before my booking had expired because of a misunderstanding on an amendment I had made on the dates on Airbnb. He had even confirmed the amendment but was adamant he hadn't and asked me to leave despite having paid for an extra day. This is how hospitable he was! Leaving a tourist almost stranded in a foreign country because I had complaints that he was not willing to address.
Every time I had a complaint or an issue which I felt needed to be addressed based on what he had advertised he would ask me to look elsewhere. This is not how you run a business because you will lose all your clients. It was too late for me to 'look elsewhere' because December is peak season in Cape Town and I had already paid for the place.
I felt it was a total rip-off and unfair for the host to act so dishonestly. There were so many rules it felt like I was in boarding school. Honesty is ALWAYS the best policy when in business. He should have been honest about everything then I would have known what to expect or made a decision based on the truth.
Initially we had WiFi which was cut off at some point because he had changed the password despite the other guests having access.
The neighborhood wasn't safe and this should have also been mentioned on the listing as well.
This almost ruined our holiday and we felt we were treated unfairly and ripped off.
