The location of this Airbnb was fantastic. Very central in the Shoreditch area, which was lively and within walking distance from many different restaurants, bars, and shops.
However, my group and I had many issues with Airbnb itself. It seems that the host hires people to manage the property, and they were the most significant issue:
1) We walked in, and it seemed as though it was not cleaned prior. The shower heads had junk on them, which we took time to clean ourselves
2)There was no iron and were questioned if we looked hard enough to find it... (the host ended up delivering one later into our stay)
3) Wi-Fi did not work for most of the days
4) The Airbnb contact took forever to respond to us. They also didn't know much about the property and weren't helpful
5) We paid additional costs to get the key delivered to us, and the host was not responsive. After hours of no contact and long waiting, they finally showed up with the key after we had to sit outside and wait
6) We had to go to the store to buy more house essentials, as we were provided with limited garbage bags and very few rolls of toilet paper, etc. This usually isn't an issue, but this house is supposed to cater to 9 adults. Why would they provide such limited supplies? We did ask for more and were told they only provide a starter amount
Great location, but the process was a headache.
