This was a major disappointment and an unacceptable experience for several reasons. The location of the apartment is is misleadingit - it looks as if it is walking distance to the Waterfront however the path goes via an underpass that is so dangerous it has a security guard posted during the day and is locked at night. There is no other pedestrian way to reachthe waterfront even though it is maximum 800m. You have to take an inconvenient Uber ride. There was active IV drug use occurring on the roadway outside the building.
Check in was smooth and the place was clean however the building was very dated and the pools/communal area were in need of maintenance. There was a strong smell of marijuana from other units. The noise inside the apartment was intolerable because the double height atrium from the reception echoes - every conversation the security guard had could be heard inside the apartment including the horror movie he was watching at 3am. the fridge is old and located next to the bed which means every time the compressor motor comes it disturbs you (it's very loud).
After a terrible night's sleep I messaged the host with my complaints and said that I had to book a hotel because I can't work or sleep in such a noisy environment. He agreed that I could cancel and I checked out leaving the place clean and tidy. I requested a refundfor the remaining nights (6) less the cleaning fee and he has since totally ignored me. this is dishonest and disingenuous and I am escalating with airbnb.
AVOID THIS PLACE - location is not safe to walk from and it's impossibly noisy.
