First - these hosts communicated really well and quickly were able to answer any questions and concerns we had! They were very kind, and when we decided to leave after one night they were very nice and accommodating. We appreciated their kindness and professionalism.
But. This place is just ok. We were on our honeymoon, and for an AirBNB Plus listing, we were really disappointed. We booked for 3 nights and decided to go elsewhere after just one. The photos make the apartment look fantastic, but it’s actually pretty dingy. The stairs leading up the the apartment don’t set the tone well. Then inside, the couch is different and feels cheap, there’s a cheap carpet on the stairs instead of the hardwood (the stairs are also really small - it might be hard to lug big bags up them), and the bed feels extremely small and is not comfortable. (We think it felt closer to a full size than a queen, but maybe bed sizes are a little different in SA compared to the US?) The windows are gorgeous and the view is absolutely amazing, but there are fairly large gaps between the windows. I guess it’s since they fold open, but it makes the whole apartment really really cold in the winter (we were there in early August). There is a wall unit in the bedroom, but downstairs there are only space heaters (we could only get one to work). When I went looking for some blankets to use while watching TV, I only found two Qatar Airlines blankets in the closet… that was *extremely* disappointing.
Additionally, the washer/dryer are in the basement and it seems to be shared with the whole building. There’s only one of each.
We were looking for a bit more luxury (or even just coziness), and tried to pay up to Plus for it. Didn’t work. Overall, except for the view and professional hosts, this place is really underwhelming. It’s just a place to sleep.
