We stayed at Arnaud's home for 5 nights and the location was very convenient and safe. I appreciated how he had a case of bottled water available for us to use.
I found the home a bit dusty which was easily resolved as I was planning to wipe down all surfaces anyway (a precautionary traveling-during-a-pandemic action). However, it appeared that the bed linens hadn't been cleaned—I sniffed the sheets & pillows (and it smelled like other people's scent). I wasn't exactly sure how Airbnb would've handled a request to change homes due to cleanliness so I did several loads of laundry there, felt it resolved the issue and stayed. I spotted a bunch of spider webs as well.
I'm a firm believer of reading reviews to inform my stays/bookings so I was definitely surprised because other reviewers left great reviews and mentioned their stay was clean. Perhaps this was a one-off experience.
