Adrian's place was in a good location, and the decor was fun and quirky. It was tidy and at first glance appeared clean, although we were surprised to see that the washing machine was on and wondered if we were supposed to hang it out for her, or if she was planning to come back for it.
The other surprise was that the keys were left out on the street for us in full view, which seemed unsafe, but as we did not have to leave them there this was not a problem.
We went out to celebrate a friend's birthday and returned at around 2.30am tired. We went to get into bed and noticed multiple small black hairs covering the sheets, as well as some small stains. We pulled back the duvet to remove it and found more human hairs and stains inside. We searched for some alternative bedding but could not find any. In the end we slept on top of the bed in our coats, sideways to avoid the dirty pillows. We were also disturbed by the fact that the curtains were too small for the windows and there were frequent flashing lights and sirens from the nearby police station. We were just managing to drift off when we heard the loud chiming of a cuckoo clock, which went off hourly.
As we were unable to sleep, I requested a refund from the host. Her responses were extremely rude and insulting and she repeatedly accused us of being drunk.
I would advise travellers to steer clear of this flat. Although it's a nice home and a great location, the cleanliness standards and the rudeness were unacceptable.
