A mixed bag with this experience. I rented the flat for five weeks with one other person due to a short term work placement in the area. The flat itself was very nice, compact but well-appointed with an excellent location for transit links and shops/pubs/restaurants. The flat came with a textbook-sized booklet of very strict instructions on what could be used (rubbish, appliances, ‘amenities’) and in what ways, but it did omit some information that would have been actually useful. It would have been helpful to know where to put the recycling and that the temperatures on the shower are reversed. Also, be aware that there are two steep & narrow flights of stairs to get to the flat.
Overall, I would recommend the flat, however, our experience with the hosts was unpleasant and infuriating. Over 5 weeks, I sent them just three messages/questions about the flat, which were all reasonable & well-mannered messages through the Airbnb chat feature. In the final week of my stay, I asked them a question about the flat and received a slightly unhinged outburst about how “ridiculous” it was for me to send them a message at 9pm and that it “shouldn’t require that high of an IQ” to resolve the issue myself. While I politely responded, the hosts went on to send me annotated screenshots of their rules (there are over 40!) and tell me that I should have read them closer. I found the hosts’ messages rude & offensive, and they made me feel uncomfortable staying there. If you do rent this Airbnb, know that you are getting precisely what you sign up for (no more, no less), with the possibility of some unwarranted offensive remarks.
