There were other AirBnBs in this exact neighborhood listed at less expensive prices. This AirBnB's common spaces photograph better than are in-person. It's much dingy-er and darker in reality. Most importantly, the amount of noise disturbance and lack of privacy of this AirBnB resembled that of a rowdy hostel, which is presumably a 1/10th of the price
I must have missed it, but I was unaware my party would be sharing this apartment with the host when I made the booking. I typically pay close attention to this, and I don't know why members of my party or I didn't realize this was the case. It is odd to have a place that advertises sleeping 6-7 to be shared with a host. This wouldn't have been an issue if the host wasn't partying until ~7-8am. The host brought over some of his own guests that woke up my party at 2am and kept us awake until the host went to bed around 8am. We had just spent the previous day traveling from the US. We were purposing this AirBnB as a place to recuperate from jet lag. The outcome couldn't have been more opposite to the intention of staying here.
