This was my first Airbnb & I was not pleased what so ever. Firstly my boyfriend & I had planned a special weekend getaway & with it being Valentines weekend, we were planning on it being even more special. Sad to say due do to rules that were not mentioned in the listing when we booked our stay, our plans were ruined. When arriving we were expecting a “Beautiful Malibu Pad Amazing ocean view” since that’s what the listing said, turns out yes we got the ocean view but we didn’t seem to get the “beautiful Malibu pad” if we knew from the beginning we were only getting a private room & not the the entire pad we wouldn’t have booked it. Private room should have been mentioned from the beginning as in the title for the listing! By beautiful we were also expecting a nice clean place & no it was not so clean. There was no parking on the premises as mentioned in the listing! We had to park on a hill on the street so carrying our luggage was no fun. When we got there Teshi right away started giving us all these rules for our stay. Yes, I get it about taking our shoes off but it’s not like the carpet was very clean in the first place. After having us take our shoes off, he took us to our room where he made sure to say we couldn’t have the lights & bathroom fan on for too long. He made sure to mention that at least 3 times. He then showed us to the kitchen where he gave us the worst rule of them all. WE COULDN’T COOK! When we booked our stay under rules it says “I respectfully request that my guests bring their own food & you may grocery shop near by” which is exactly what we did before arriving! BUT turns out we could only do “light cooking” & according to Teshi the food we had brought was not light & he wouldn’t even let us store our meat in the fridge. Teshi was expecting us to go out & eat. My boyfriend very unpleased with this rule had to throw away our meat which meant our dinner for Saturday was completely ruined. The next day we went out to buy microwaveable food, BUT to make things worst, once again our dinner was ruined because the microwave DID NOT WORK!! Not being able to cook & not having a working microwave should have been something mentioned from the very beginning!! Instead of mentioning & telling us to bring our own groceries!! We had booked this stay mainly for the ocean view & we thought we would arrive to a clean living room where we could enjoy the view but we didn’t instead we got a messy living & dinner area. So if we wanted to enjoy the view we ourselves had to move a small table & 2 chairs out into the patio. We really were expecting so much from our first Airbnb experience & we were just completely disappointed from the minute we parked up a hill from the place. Details like this should really be mentioned in the listing or at least communicated to the guest before arriving. We really thought our Airbnb experience would have us feel at home but we didn’t feel at home one bit, especially since the place wasn’t as clean we expected it be. Our valentines weekend was ruined because of many things not mentioned from the beginning.
