Would not stay here again or recommend to others. I am a fellow Airbnb host, I understand the rating system and was totally not expecting a 5 star hotel, but this was not what I expected.
Pros- safe neighborhood and room, cheep!, good water pressure in shower, toast and jam and a toaster were nice, short distance to a big park and metro/bus
Cons- Cockroaches in the room, I didn’t put any of my things directly on the floor, which is really hard in this tiny room. The room always humid and damp. You have about a 2 min agility shower- bring conditioning shampoo because you don’t have time for both! She clearly says the size of the water tank, but not that the pressure is so much it all comes out at once. One tip for this if you do stay here is there is a shut off on the shower head itself so you can shut it off from there when not absolutely necessary. It offered me an option to request an earlier checkin time that needed special approval- I did this and also wrote a note that I needed an earlier checkin time if there were to accept my request to stay, they accepted the stay then acted like they didn’t know anything about the request (rather then instant book) and said I needed to follow the originally written rules or to take it up with Airbnb… she was friendlier in person, but it was a very negative interaction off the bat. There is a hole between the door and door frame so you can see directly to the bed, I put a piece of paper wedged in the door to fix this. There were hairs on the sink and in my bed, mold in the shower- not a total deal breaker for me at this price, but still something for you to consider.
Maybe ask if they upgraded- the shower head- it all comes out at once and a low flow shower head would go a long way. Ask if they installed a DEhumidifier, they had a humidifier that kept air a tiny bit cooler and circulating in this tiny room with a shower and no windows, but that meant I was literally adding moisture to the air. And you may want to ask if they actually offer an earlier checkin time if you need one before requesting to book.
