We have stayed at dozens of AirBnBs over the years with hardly any issues, but this experience was substandard due to poor cleanliness. The gentleman who showed us round the flat was still brushing dust and debris off surfaces while he gave us a tour.
There was dirty cutlery and cups in the kitchen and dust across many surfaces and rugs which clearly hadn't been cleaned properly in a long time. We arrived 10 minutes prior to check-in to be told cleaning was still in progress, however we suspect a proper cleaning job was not undertaken.
We were also kept awake until 1am on Saturday morning due to live music being played in the pub below the flat. The lighting in the bedroom and living room was also poor - the bedroom was massive and only had bedside table lamps and a standing light near the desk in the corner.
There is a significant damp problem affecting one of the walls, but this was highlighted to us on arrival and we were told they were in process of addressing this.
The location is excellent and the check-in process otherwise smooth. The apartment is very spacious.
