Spend Your Money Elsewhere! - I booked this place last minute and immediately regretted it upon arrival! Due to work matters I had to fly out to Los Angeles from one day to the next, seeing as we are IN THE MIDDLE OF GLOBAL PANDEMIC, I knew I would NOT be sightseeing or going out as I have done in the past when visiting Los Angeles. I just wanted to be in a space where I could relax, cook, actually hangout and enjoy the space itself as if it were my own home. This stay was nothing but stressful and made for an extremely uncomfortable situation as I didn't know what was clean or what was not anymore! When reserving and paying for the apartment I was prompted an external website that was not Airbnb to choose a time frame to check-in, my flight was an early direct flight therefore I wanted an early check-in at 1PM. I was charged an additional fee by Abode (the company that owes and/or manages the apartment) to check-in early, the reasoning tied to the fee states online that cleaners now have to come earlier to the unit to clean and prep. This was not a problem for me and I happily paid the additional fee and stated what time I would be arriving. I ended up arriving 30mins before I was supposed to check-in, so I decided to wait a bit in the foyer/lobby before contacting the host. However, within the building foyer there is another door that employees from the Cannabis store/dispensary (located in the same building) are frequently using and I just didn't want to be in their way anymore. I contacted the host at 12:39PM, after 20 minutes (12:59PM) I got a message from the host stating that early check-ins have to be approved and cleaners have to be notified to come in earlier. The standard check-in time is 4PM but the earliest check-in can be 2PM to allow the cleaners to prepare the unit. Unfortunately I can't check-in at 1PM this time as there was a check-out this morning from the same apartment. The cleaners are currently cleaning the apartment, they would not be done till 4PM. The host offered me a refund for the early check-in/cleaning and said I can go upstairs and leave my bags, that they would notify me when the apartment was done being cleaned. Hopefully the cleaners would be done before 4PM. I appreciated the gesture and accepting, however, I had to wait an additional 15mins to actually get upstairs as the host told me to just go and knock on the unit door but failed to inform me of the code that unlocks the main door to go up. I finally got upstairs as another tenant from the building asked me if I needed to come in. I got to the apartment door and was knocking for a few minutes, no one answered. I waited an additional 10mins. and I contacted the host. Another 15mins went by and I was told the cleaners were actually done! And was given a new code to enter the apartment. It's now 1:45PM, getting into the apartment took 45mins if we're counting check-in at 1PM and over an hour if you count from when I actually got there. Despite the waiting around and messaging back and forth trying to get into the building and then trying to get into the unit itself, I was still okay but I was beginning to feel unease when I looked at the time.. How is the apartment completely cleaned already? The host told me there was a check-out this morning which is 11AM. What time did the cleaners leave if I had already been here for an hour and a half just waiting around and I didn't see any cleaners leave. If the cleaners did come, how long did they clean for? .. HERE'E WHERE EVERYTHING GOES DOWNHILL.. Immediately entering the apartment, I went to turn on the lights and the light switch on the wall looked like someone had touched them with food. Disgusted, I dropped all my bags and went to go grab paper towel to clean it. I got to the kitchen and there was no paper towel at all and no cleaning supplies. I grabbed some toilet paper and then found some purple pine-sol in a spray bottle under the kitchen sink and cleaned off the light switch. I turned on the light and immediately saw the couch in the living room. The couch looks like it has not been cleaned in a long time or maybe even ever! It has multiple unknown stains all over and had long strands of hair which were obviously not mine! Even more grossed out, I opened my bag as I had rubber gloves, all-purpose cleaner and lysol disinfectant spray. I took a clean white face towel from the washroom and began cleaning and disinfecting all the light switches on the walls, when I was done the towel was no longer white. With the rubber gloves on, I ran my hands over the couch, its easier to grab the hair off the fabric with the rubber, I removed most of the random individual hair strands but there were some strands still left here and there. Luckily I was able to find what looked like a clean white large comforter that was in a drawer in the walk-in closet, it was big enough to cover most of the couch so I put it over the couch and left it on there for the remained of my stay because I wasn't going to start cleaning those crazy stains off the couch. Freaked out, I ended up using toilet paper and another clean face towel and my own cleaning supplies to wipe down all the counter tops in the kitchen and washroom as well as all handles, tv remote controllers, dining room table and chairs. After thinking I was done, I went into the
