On a good note the host is very good at communications. Never any issue sending info back and forth.
Unfortunately Clean was not critical at this location, Cheap appears to be the primary concern. Probably the reason there are no refunds. Worst Airbnb I have ever been at. I would not look for tranquility at this location. My travel partner and I don't have real high standards but we both started looking for a new place to stay as soon as we walked in the door. Refund was refused - Better to be happy.
I wasn’t sure smell was trash in street or unit. It was the unit. it was pretty dirty. Stained carpets, torn up carpet at entry, walls were dirty especially around light switches. Would have expected someone to wipe down walls once in a while.
The Bath area is cheaply hacked together and barely room to stand in. And it was on a whole other floor not near room. Holes in the ceiling and walls. The Shower almost overflowed. And the dressing area was barely big enough to stand in, smaller than the shower. It seemed like they were trying to fit as bath showers and toilets in the smallest space they could.
A couple of accent lights would have been a nice addition. You had the choice of ceiling lights that provide bright afternoon daylight or dark with the lights turned off.
Like I said I think a cheap building conversion to an Airbnb with low cost cleaning.
However this space is near the tube. Right across the street. So good access to anywhere.
