To be honest, I think it’s a less pleasant experience than my expectation. First of all, the house is smaller as my expected. Also it’s a renovated house in an old building so please be prepared to walk 3-floor stairs. The decoration is not as modern as the pictures shown. The description said there’s 1.5 bathroom but actually it just separates the toilet and the shower room. The toilet is in the living room and the shower room is in the bedroom. Some good thing is that the house has strong air conditioners, which is very appreciated.
Secondly, the location is not very convenient. It normally took us around 5-10 mins to walk to the nearest metro station. Still, it’s a very quiet neighborhood.
Lastly, we feel the checkin and check out process is not very flexible. The host met us in person to handle over the key during check in. Please note that you will be charged late checkin fee if your checkin time is too late. She also asked for our check out time and said would meet us at home at the agreed time for checkout. It’s a not very common request. We waited the host at the agree time but she didn’t show up. Since we were in a bit rush, I messaged the host 10 mins after the agreed time and she told me she’s running late and asked me to leave the key at home. I felt the whole met-in-personal check out process is a bit unreasonable. And the host was not responsive since she didn’t message us in time about her being late but just kept us waiting. Also the host always reminded us to clean the garbage ourself when checkout, while I feel this should be already included in the cleaning fee so we were not supposed to do all the cleaning. Although we still throw the garbage by ourself at last.
Considering of the price, we think the value of this apartment is lower than my other Airbnb experience.
