As previous reviews pointed out, there was a complete lack of communication from Dan which lead to us having no response up until after our check in time. That lead to us having to find different accommodation.
On top of it all, the host told us to cancel the booking and that he would refund us, just to then refuse a refund and claim he had sent an email that we never received and he got defensive and unprofessional when confronted.
Thanks to Airbnb for getting our money back, and thanks Dan for charging us for a place we never stayed in.
