one of the worst places i ever stayed in through Airbnb. the place looks as in photos however, my experience was really harsh. the moment i got into the staircase i smelt something unpleasant kind of intense smoke. i thought this might only be in the staircase but when i got into the flat it has even a worse smell. something rotten and also burning cigarettes in which i am quite sensitive to these smells. i thought by opening the windows and spraying air freshener it'll be ok. but in the evening the smell was intense that i had bad headache, coughing and burning eyes. i went out of the place to have a fresh air. it was already around 10pm and i knew i dont wanna stay there i cant stay. the host has a staying policy charging for a minimum 2 nights and i wanted to at least not lose the first night so i stayed the first night next to the window laying on the sofa and DIDNT SLEEP FOR EVEN 1 MINUTE i was literally awake coughing the whole night. in the early morning i contacted the host and told him about this he said he's sorry about it. at that point i wasnt intending to negotiate about fixing the issue cause i cant experience anymore nights like that just wanted to get out.( the smell starts to be intense at nights- mornings is considerably fine). i checked out before 12pm and went to a hotel that cost me more than regular flats. and i asked the host to refund me with the second night as im already out of his place and in a hotel since morning. rudely, the host ignored my message till now and rejected my claim on airbnb for a refund. another thing that i was shocked to see when i got into the place is the parquet; IT IS ROTTEN, there are ants all over the parquet coming through it. the parquet in the living room looks even worse with wide weird black scratches all over, last line: avoid at any expense.
