I really liked this apartment; the security features in place, proximity to my meeting place, finishing and so on. The host also allowed me an early check-in, for which I am thankful. My low point was that when I didn’t hear from the host as other AirBnB hosts do immediately one makes the booking and payment, I wrote to the host asking for the necessary details and had received no response about 3 days later. When I wrote again, the response was that these details are only given on the morning of check-in. The challenge is, I was travelling and would probably not have access to WiFi on my arrival, or land with phone out of power… so wanted to save/print the key details. How is one supposed to get into the apartment in such a case? I asked for the address to the building which wasn’t forthcoming, I was finally told that ‘’the address is on the website where you made the booking’’, yet I knew AirBnB doesn’t give exact location until. I don’t think all guests are from Cape Town to read the name CC-1 The Icon and quickly know its location. When I finally got the address, it was a PIN that was dropped. How do I pick an Uber with a PIN? The host indicated that people prefer the PIN… but doesn’t this work best for those driving? How do I access the PiN if say my phone is dead from 12 hours of travel? It was just sad to keep pleading for information. If such information cannot be given earlier, for security purposes, then upon booking, the host should at least send a message indicating this so that the guests manage their expectations. I have lived in AirBnBs all over the world, but this was the first time I was encountering such challenges. Someone once told me, 'Proposer communication is like blood in the veins!'
