The location is close to Galta tower but on the bottom of a giant hill which makes it hard to get around. It is in the suburbs and in dark alleyways - I wouldn’t recommend it for solo female travelers. It felt safe for me but may be unsafe for others
The bedsheet had a questionable sperm-like stain on it which felt and liked like sperm - it was very unhygenic. The host immediately replaced the bedsheets once I informed the host. The pillows were quite uncomfortable as well.
It was hard to figure out how to use things in the apartment- even as something as simple as the kettle or the AC. The apartment was incredibly hot and stuffy. The floors are lopsided and the rooms are a lot smaller than pictured - the host uses a wide camera lens to get a bigger effect. I was very dissuaded to stay at home because of how hot it was.
The sleep is very uncomfortable because the only way to sleep is to keep the windows open - but if you do this, the neighbors can peer into your bedroom. Very uncomfortable and no privacy.
The shower was uncomfortable and old - the shower head wasn’t held up. The hot water was super unreliable.
The host was responsive but quite ineffective when it came to managing things. He offered to send me a desert for my troubles which isn’t what is appropriate - I’d rather have things working and a place to sleep in, rather than extra food.
The check out process was painful - I needed to stay a bit longer but the host wasn’t understanding.
Overall, this Airbnb felt like a ‘set and forget’ source of income - the host needs to put in a lot more effort into the residence for it to be worth somebody’s stay
