On arriving at the property it looked ok from the outside then enter through the entrance doors to find people mail and flyers scattered over the floor.
Going up to the 3rd floor in the lift was fine but then walking along the long corridor to the apartment I would say the cleaniness was below average.
First impressions on entering the apartment were fine, the chap who met me literally let me in gave me 1 key fob and the WIFI password and then left - didnt even show me around the apartment, how things worked or even where you take the rubbish.
After looking around the apartment its safe to say it needs a good lick of paint, lots of scuffs and marks on the walls, however this was not the biggest of issues, cleaniness was the issues, dusty surfaces, dirty bathroom with people rubbish left in the drawers, in the wardrobe in the bedroom was someone else underwear but the best bit was finding someone elses washing in the machine (which stank! so much of been there for days!) and their trousers on the follow in the laundry cupboard.
The dust was awful! at least a good CM thick behind the bed and when you run your hand over the tops of door frames etc, let alone the amount on the window seals!
I obviously raised this through the support portal on Airbnb and had a response saying that they could get someone to go in clean (again?) and as compensation to provde fresh bedding half way through my 45 day stay.
I responsed to this advising that i am up at 5am for work and do not get back until 6pm therefore the last thing i want is someone coming in to clean, of which i had a response saying they could go in while i was at work... i had all my personal items in the flat therefore did not want someone else in there when i wasnt there! If your cleaner had done their job in the first place it wouldnt of needed doing again!
I was not offered compensation nor a refund as my stay was for 45 days therefore outside of the T&C's.
I could not follow up on this as i was taken ill for 2 weeks but when i was ok i brought my hoover from home and i was shocked to see the amount of dirt and dust that came out of the carpets... it actually filled the canistar on my hoover! After 2 weeks..... shocking!
Anyway... a few days before my departure I had to contact again via Airbnb to find out the checkout process of which was to leave both keys on the side, shut the windows, turn off the appliances and close the door making sure its locked.
I responded straight away advising that i was only ever given 1 key fob and do not want to be charged for this... of which i had no reply.
The area was ok - only downfall is the noisy pubs below.. .especially on a Sunday evening.
Safe to say i will not be returning.
