The neighborhood was as described. Upon entering, I immediately noticed that the apartment had an unpleasant smell; it smelled like there was a water issue--perhaps mold or mildew. The windows were open, but it did not diminish the scent. There was food in the refrigerator and it appeared that it was not clean. Not what I was expecting. I immediately contacted the host to let them know that we were not comfortable there. I received a reply indicating that it could have been an issue with the cleaning company. This was my first experience with AirBnB. We had to scramble to make other arrangements.
