The place was supposed to be a “chalet/apartment” rental but was just a damp+ mouldy painted garage with a toilet pasted in the back. Upon arrival i was not greeted by my host. Or my keys. I was greeted by a random couple who had some how gained access to this airbnb before me and had been sleeping in there. For how long who knows.
Visibly mouldy walls in the toilet area ,complete with dank towels. Mould had also reached the pillows which i unfortunately realised after id put my face in them and ended up using my own towel as a pillow. Shower was broken and there was genuinely not enough space for me to use the toilet - i am 6ft and could not sit down on the toilet and could barely stand in the shower.
Whole place reeked of mildew with massive moulded patch behind the toilet. Had to remove a panel and root around in cobwebs to actually turn on the few electronics in the house as theyd been turned off and essentially boarded up?
Non functional central heating and a portable heater lighter than my phone that instantly smelt like burning hair once turned on - and once i looked i saw it was filled with various items such as an ear bud and the remains of a double decker chocolate bar.
Loud neighbours to the left right and above who love 12-2am dance rehearsals.
Which youd think isnt bad since it ends at 2 but then you realise the walls are so thin you can hear peoples heavy breathing and snoring (theres a difference), you can hear their coughs, the microwave, the toilet it literally is never quiet. Don’t expect privacy as the host has fitted office blinds not curtains.
Zero toiletries, broken shower, unsealed windows in a shady area. Dodgy stuff all over as i entered in and out and police on one occasion parking right outside my window to deal with an incident whilst i was trying to sleep
Very very very unhappy, genuine waste of money. Meant to be for work yet im arguing with neighbours at midnight to get them to be quiet because i have to be awake in three hours.
Hell staying here.
If you do decide for some reason to stay here bring everything from home from toothpaste to pillows, toilet roll to cutlery and a radiator as the host told me on phone when I complained about the place being completely empty “its self-catering”
Keep note this hosts method of key transferral is “putting it under the doormat”
Also expect btec intimidation via text if you dont like the place.
