1) For the price we paid to stay for 12 hours we should not have been up charged for parking, an extra hour to check out (12 instead of 11), dog fee for an ESA (which I believe is not ok anyways).... That should all be included.
Plus there was no smoke detectors, I needed to send her a copy of my passport, and my dog (for insurance purposes)..... I would worry more about those smoke detectors first.
2) The lists for things to do were a bit much..... like basically keep it clean so all the maids have to do is make the beds? Then why pay a cleaning fee?
3) I booked @ 8pm before my 1 hour flight to LB & spent most of my time pre/post flight getting messages about the up charges, the rules, how to get in.
As a Realtor: I loved the space
As a landlord: I was not impressed at the way things were set up for the tenants. Paying $200+ a night should resort in the landlord taking care of clean up, trash, dishes, etc
As a traveler: The last thing I want to do after a long day of traveling is drive in circles to find an entrance, open 2 lockboxes to gain access, and spend an extra 20 minutes outside the property once arrived.
As an Airbnb user: this was one of my shortest stays (at least 10 already this year) and by far most complicated to deal with.
Nothing to as wrong with Susan herself, or the property, but the whole system in place for the unit needs to be re structured.
After checking in; I read the reviews & it seems I experienced all of the things others complained of (including the outside noise level heard from inside he unit).
I doubt I would stay here again, or suggest it to others I know, but everyone’s experience I’m sure is different.
Plus the cleaning ladies showed up @
11 instead of 12.... so the extra sleep I paid for was out the window due to lack of communication.
