DO NOT STAY HERE.
I’ve never been more uncomfortable in a place before. The only redeeming feature is it’s location. There was a whole array of issues with the place from the very beginning.
The air conditioning did not work at all, on 90 degree days the inside of the apartment got up to 82 degrees and there was no remedy. They sent someone over to give us desk fans to try and fix the issues. Needless to say that didn’t work.
There was no information in the listing that said you would be sharing a bathroom and living with a minimum of 4-5 other people. I acknowledge it said shared bathroom but absolutely no indication that you’d be like sardines cramped into an apartment with temporary walls put up to squeeze two more rooms in.
The bed base was broken and slats wouldn’t stay in and the mattress was so bad that I could feel the slats underneath. When I went to change the bed sheets I saw that the mattress was stained beyond comprehension, I was so so disgusted.
To top it all off, as soon as I arrived I was texted to inform me that this Airbnb isn’t allowed in the building and to lie to any resident that asked me who I was staying with.
I would have left within 24 hrs however circumstances out of my control required me to be in that area. Instead of even contemplating extending my stay, I’ve resorted to checking in at a hotel.
