This was the worst experience I have ever had with airbnb.
The positive - the apartments are well located in Brixton, the check in was easy and the apartment has a good light and decor concept.
I need to point out that I was given a different apartment than the one listed and showed here. The apartment I was given was facing the street and extremely noisy. There were flies there and a lingering smell which I later understood comes from a high humidity in the whole house. I kept my windows open and flagged this to the host. A cleaning service was offered but never followed through. There was no feedback as to why I was given a different apartment than booked and generally there was no reply anymore.
The worst thing of all which made me reach out to airbnb was the intrusion of privacy. I was told on my arrival that on the next day maintenance would come to check the sink. They never came but a day later it knocked on my door. As a Woman traveling alone I did not answer, a few days later someone tried to enter the apartment by putting in the safety code which opens the room. Unsolicited and not communicated intrusion is the last thing a woman needs when choosing an Apartment. Lastly the drain in the shower did not work causing it to flood the bathroom when showering.
A lot of these issues could have been prevented and/or solved if the host had made any effort to do so. Given the price of this listing I have received no value for the money and essentially not what I had booked in the first place.
