Pauline is kind to buy us the baby bath tub and stool when we bath the baby. She also kindly provided another induction cooker when the gas stove is not functioning (the gas stove is still not functioning when we moved out). The location is unbeatable and it’s quiet at night.
However, there are a few things we encountered, which make our journey become very unpleasant:
1. It’s been raining and cold for many days in Taipei. We can only dry our clothes indoor, which made the whole house even more humid. We asked Pauline to provide the dehumidifier and another heater but there’s no response regarding this.
2. Before we moved in, we are totally fine and have never heard of bird mites. After we moved in, we have been bitten by small black bugs. We believed the bugs are called bird mites after some investigations. After many sleepless nights, we decided to tell Pauline, but she told us that no one has ever reported it to her and simply ignored our request. This forced us to move out a week before the end of our stay and we still have to pay for the full amount of the rent.
3. The house is clean for some area, but the bookshelf, paintings and a lot of decorations are super dusty. We cleansed the bookshelf and transfer the books to another place as we utilised the shelf to place the baby stuff. But Pauline accused us that we “damage” her house. This makes our communications far from pleasant.
I have enjoyed accommodations booked from Airbnb for many years, and have never encountered anything like this. Hope Pauline will deal with the problem of the bird mites before she rent out her house again.
