When people say that AirBnb has gone downhill, this the kind of listing they're talking about. Near as I can tell, this ratchet flophouse is just one of 180 listings that these investors run.
The place is awful. The first thing that hit me when I entered (after I finally found the place) was the awful smoke smell. It smelled like someone smoked two packs of marlboro a day in here for 30yrs, died, and then Snoop Dogg came in and threw a party with the windows closed. I love me some marijuana, but smoking it inside is just trashy.
There were exactly two towels supplied. No hand towels, no washcloths, no paper towels, nothing. Wanna wash your hands? Screw you, wipe them on your shirt. Also no soap or body wash or shampoo or anything. Just a busted ass, mildewy shower cubby that sprayed water all over the floor because the cheap plastic curtain they hung to replace the sliding door had no way of actually sealing.
The bed was a thin, cheap piece of foam on plywood, and the first night, I froze my ass off because a cold snap hit, and the thermostat was locked up. Oh, and no extra blanket either.
I tried sticking it out for a couple days and then bailed. This place sucks. These low-rent Airbnb investor/hosts suck.
