I booked this Airbnb based off of the amount of positive reviews it provided. My experience unfortunately was not as pleasant as others. I am a solo female traveller. I was booked to stay at this space for a few days, but ended up leaving after the first night. Prior to arriving to my location, it was advised that the host would not be there, but her friend would let me in - which was fine. It was not mentioned that this friend was also residing at the airbnb. Upon arrival, I was advised by the friend that there was another male resident who was also residing at the airbnb at the same time. All information which should have been provided by the host prior to minutes of me arriving. I am shown to my room, which is clean and tidy. The bedding and towels provided however unfortunately smelled liked they sat in the washer and went bad. (It was potent enough for my pajamas to have the smell during the rest of my trip). The next morning, while I was sleeping, I was woken up by the friend entering my room, without knocking. I immediately woke up and I don’t think she realized I was in the room, because she seemed surprised and closed the door right away. I think it’s highly inappropriate for someone to be coming into my private space, especially without knocking. And what if I wasn’t in the room? Would she still have gone in with all my belongings exposed? It all did not sit well. I decided to leave the airbnb and check myself into a hotel. I attempted to speak with the friend about coming into my room, but she was nowhere to be found. I also found it very awkward to bring up the bedding/towels because I wasn’t sure if she may have washed them, or it was from the host - especially since the friend said she stayed in my room prior to me arriving. Airbnb had to be contacted for further help. I hope this experience doesn’t happen to anyone else going forward.
