Well, I cannot say much about the apartment, cos I never stay there. But I can say a little about the host.
Airline would not board me cos of some technical issue and I missed my non-refundable flight. I pleaded with the host to charge me for the night I was expected to arrive and perhaps an additional night and refund me so I don't lose 2-ways.
He just ignored my message like he never saw it.
While I understand that these places have policies, c'mon, we are all humans. Disgusted!!
