I was pretty disappointed with my experience staying in this apartment. Here's why:
- I prefer to stay in Airbnb's over hotels because they have all the comforts of home. This apartment is far from that type of experience. The kitchen is worn down with little to no cooking equipment. The bed doesn't have pillows, only throw pillows (doubt they wash those). The bathroom has two bath towels total. No hand towels or extra towels if you need them. There was only one roll of toilet paper - which I after reading a few other reviews is the norm. The only soap was a used bar of soap in the shower.
- The toilet didn't flush. When I reached out to Jay, I was told it was too late to call a plumber and I should try filling up a pot of water (from the kitchen) and emptying it into the tank. We had to do this our entire stay. It was clear this wasn't the first time this had happened.
- Early the next morning, I received a message from Jay saying that if I gave a 5 star review, I'd get a discount on my next stay. This made me question the credibility of the other 5 star reviews for this apartment.
