This is the most racist hosts you can find. The husband Jon was extremely kind but his wife is so racist and controlling!
Before my trip began, I tried to extend my date and the guest did not respond to allow the extention so I had to rebook new dates at the same listing.
Upon my arrival at the apartment, the host wife was there but did not make any effort to get in touch with me but instead sent her maid who just showed me to my room without any welcome, additional house rules, information, etc.
After the cold welcome, I wanted to leave the apartment but could not get out as I was handed the wrong keys and had to wait until the maid could let me out.
The house rules clearly stated that the house alarm is activated on the main home (I was not staying in the main home and the description did not indicate that the private entrance cottage had beams. There was no instructions about when the alarm would be put on and how I should enter and exit if the main house alarm is on) and the host annoyingingly made me feel like I inconvenienced them for coming home late because the dogs started barking and the alarm went off.
The host then decided to open a whatsapp group and requested that every time I leave and re enter the apartment I should inform them. Again, it was so ambiguous because they did not say whether I have to send them a message and wait for their reply (as in would they be 24/7 monitoring my messages and putting off the alarm?). Eventually I posed the question in the group asking if I should wait for their response before I can leave and I was told that I should let them know if I'm at home before 10pm so they can put the alarm on and msg them before 7am if I want to leave. This was a huge inconvenience considering this was never mentioned in their house rules and which tourist goes on holiday to be given curfews. I mean there are wonderful bars in the vicinity but you can in this case only visit them during the day to avoid alarms and dogs going off at you. In my opinion these rules were vague and strategically implemted as a means to frustrate my stay so that I could be the one to cancel and leave.
Also according to the pictures there was a stove and I read on the listing that I can cook my meals. However, after I checked in I realized there was no stove. I then asked the host for a stove and had to wait 2 whole days with constant messaging (the host had no urgency to assist me with a stove) and eventually the host left the stove at the gate even though she knew I was there.
After I complied to their ridiculous rules that I'm sure was not placed on anyone before because who goes on holiday to be told about curfews and why host guests if your place is not guest friendly? Eventually, the host informs me that she needs to have a chat with me and asks me how often am I going to come and go so late because I'm disturbing them and their neighbors so she thinks I should leave but she is not saying I should leave now but maybe I can look for something else. All these events occurred in a span of 6 days and it's clear her rules that I complied to as ridiculous as they seemed were nothing short of racial tactics as her way to frustrate me to get me to leave.
This extreme hostile accomodation I received from these hosts were unjustifiable and I could not understand what i had done to them to receive such a bad stay and therefore I feel that their actions were racially motivated and Sally was being passive aggressive in her efforts by trying to get me to leave.
