Awful flat and untruthful greedy host
We rent the flat for two months, facility problems started on the first day of arrival. 1. Very old furniture, squeaky doors, beds and closets. 2. Shower stream was extremely small, literally was dripping all the time, hot water was not consistent, it’s run out every 2mins, so we have to stop showering for 2-3mins to have warm water again. There was no heater in the bath room, shower in there was slow, cold and annoying. 3. Heater in livingroom and bedrooms were not working properly, the valves are worn out, making unbearable noise every 3 hours when it’s on, have to turn it off for a while and then restart it. It means we cannot use heater during nights, otherwise we have to get up and trun it off in the middle of sleep. We also got complaints from neighbor because of the noise, after that, we couldn’t use heaters in the night. 4. Windows in livingroom and kitchen could not be locked, very accessible for people climb in. We have addressed all the above issues to the host, but nothing was fixed until we move out.
Before we moved in, the female host agreeed to give us £170 discount out of £5170. After we moved in for two weeks, she had regretted on it. Not only the discount was gone, in the meanwhile, she asked me for an extra £500 because “airbnb took the commission and the money won’t go into her pocket”. After I argued with her, she said it was “misunderstanding” between us. I can’t fully trust that becsuse we were not the first guest she had in the flat.
After we moved out, she was greedy enough to request another £100 for cleaning fee, she report us stole her kettle which was full of limescale, and we kept it in the cupboard. She blamed us broke her drawer, I have a vedio to prove that it was broken since we moved in.
I could have just leave her a 3 stars for the review, but the brazen-faced way she ask for money tirggered me off. I’m responsible for every comments I made above, and I have evidence to prove all of them.
