We booked at the Last minute, but FIRST asked if we could check in right away (at 4pm), and if I had my own parking spot. They said yes to both, yet when we arrived, we had to wait in the car for almost 2 hours before someone showed up with a key! (& by then it was dark). And There was no parking space (just street parking in a sketchy neighborhood). It’s a very noisy apartment. There’s even a train right across the traffic street! & the views are mostly all blocked. There was lots of space in the apartment though, but the back deck was very dirty, and the 2 bedrooms were yucky. It DID have a washer & dryer & a super nice kitchen & dining area- but my bedroom oddly had the bathroom IN bedroom! So the toilet, shower & sink were on both sides of the bed. It was pretty GROSS! I would’ve left immediately if it wasn’t already dark & too late to find someplace new.
Thankfully they let us check out the next day (vs staying 2 nights), but we still had to pay full rate for the 1 night & wasted so much time driving there, waiting, carrying luggage up and down stairs & then finding another place (i would NOT have gone at all had I known the truth). As a superhost myself, I would have comped the stay if I ever ruined a guest’s plans the way they did ours but making promises they couldn’t keep.
In the morning, we were able to see that the area was actually fun & pretty cool! We may have dug it had we gotten in when it was light out. It’s especially fun for shopping (cool hippy vibe), antiques and lots of fun shops & fisherman! But choose another property and see if you’re ok with the toilet being near the bed...
