I booked Chloe's place based on the great reviews I read.
The location of the flat was in the heart of the Norther Quarter. Everyone I spoke with during my visit were also very polite and responsive. However, I would not recommend this place to others based on my poor experience.
- I was supposed to have an early check-in at 12pm, but the flat was not ready when I arrived.
- Upon arrival, the flat smelled musty and of old cigarettes.
- There was no heat in the bathroom so anytime I wanted to shower, I froze. The temperature of the water in the sink was also either extremely cold or extremely hot so it was difficult to wash your hands or wash your face. I had to wash my face with cold water every morning.
- On the second day, the shower broke and there was no water so I could not shower. I immediately notified Chloe and she had someone come out to look at the shower, but they wouldn't be able to fix it until the following morning. We were able to use the empty flat on the second floor to shower in the mean time. I understand that this issue was completely unexpected, however, as a guest, this was very inconvenient.
- The beds were not comfortable.
- The wifi did not work throughout the whole flat. It would only work if you sat on the very edge of the bed in one of the bedrooms.
I've stayed in three other Airbnb's in Europe directly after my stay at Chloe's place. All of the hosts greeted us and made us feel like we were in a home away from home. I, unfortunately, did not feel this way staying in Chloe's flat. I think that the flat could use some updating to make guests feel more welcomed and comfortable.
