My stay was terrible. When I inquired about check in prior to arrival at the Airbnb, they mentioned someone would meet me in person for check in. However, the day of they sent me a message saying it is self check in. The building does not have an elevator and the staircase is very narrow. I was traveling solo and had to carry my heavy suitcase up several flights of stairs. In addition the door is very difficult to open with the keys. I was standing outside for 15 minutes or so, trying to open the door. That night I heard a very loud party in the apartment below mine.
The next morning when I was about to head out, I saw two police standing at the front entrance of the building. They started questioning me asking where I am from, to see my ID, do I live in the building, do I have the keys for the apartment. Then they walked with me to the Airbnb to make sure I was not lying and I could open the door of the Airbnb. There were different police throughout the day and each time I have to go in and out they would ask me the same questions. When I asked them what was going on, they would always say it was nothing. I contacted the Airbnb property management company and they had no idea either.
Due to these safety reasons, I did not feel comfortable staying in the Airbnb any longer and therefore booked a hotel to stay at on my second and third night. I told the property management company I will need a refund and they said I would be issued a refund but I never received the refund. When I tried messaging the property management company again to follow up, they never responded back. This Airbnb was a complete disappointment and I would highly recommend to not stay here!
