Cozy studio with a lovely terrace in a good location, close to Lausanne, public transportation, and a Tesla supercharger. Breakfast of bread and jam was provided which is a nice plus.
Unfortunately, we were counting on several amenities in the listing which were not actually provided and no alternatives were offered by the host when we inquired during the stay.
- There was no washer and dryer (evidently available only one day a week).
- When we arrived at the apartment, it was easily 90°F (32°C) inside even though the temperature outside was a lovely 70°F (21°C). The listing noted portable fans- none were in the apartment and the host confirmed there were none. There is no way to get a cross breeze so the apartment remained hot throughout the night making for two nights of bad sleep.
- There was no shampoo or soap provided.
- One of the two towels was completely sandy (as if it had been used on a beach and was unwashed) We both had to use the same towel and had to try to clean the sand off the floor.
AirBnb addressed the situation with me afterwards but I feel that other renters should be aware of the lack of amenities currently listed in the ad. Hopefully it is soon changed to reflect the reality a bit more.
Future renters- note some of the coffee pods provided did not fit the Nespresso machine so pick the ones that do.
Side note: it could not hold 25 people as listed
