The cleanliness of the floors was an issue the day we checked in. I was in the house for less than two hours and had on white socks. The bottom of my socks were black. I called Airbnb immediately. They contacted the owner, who said he would fix the issue.
He unexpectedly showed up at the front door, without notifying me that he was coming. I didn't know who it was, so I didn't open the door. Then he called and said he was outside. He said, he never had anyone complain about the cleanliness of the home and usually gets compliments. He suggested that maybe the dirt came from the outside? He said that he cleaned the floors himself. But he would clean them again. We set up a time for him to come back and he seemed disturbed, that I wanted to be in the house, while he cleaned the floors and he kept asking.. why I needed to stay because he felt uncomfortable. We left.
The parking situation was not as it was pictured, it showed two cars in the space. I had a midsize SUV and due to the blockage of the driveway with the dollhouse, it made parking in the back impossible. Every night I had to park in a different spot on the street. The inability to walk out the back door, to take the trash out was dangerous. I had to walk out the front door and then around the corner, to get the trash into the bins out back. The heating unit in the second bedroom was loud and disruptive to my son. I mentioned the barking dog to the owner, that occupied the other side of the fence. He said that he would walk the dog and we shouldn't hear him barking.
