This Airbnb is just fine. The issues we came across all had to do with the bed. At first glance, it seemed as though the place was cleaned well, but it soon became apparent that the sheets and duvet were not cleaned (there were spots of crusty residue on both). The bed itself was so uncomfortable and creaky. The mattress sinks in so much that my husband and I kept rolling into the center of the mattress. We got in really late (around 2:30am) and tried to contact Airbnb so that we could at least get some clean sheets or be accommodated somewhere else, but they never got back to us and we ended up falling asleep. We just laid down some towels so we would have as little contact with the uncleaned sheets as possible haha. We ended up cancelling our second night and stayed at our friend’s place instead.
Other minor things: the WiFi is pretty spotty and parking wasn’t the easiest. Parking was fine but most of the closest spots are metered.
We didn’t use the kitchen but it looked very clean. The bathroom was clean and the shower had great water pressure/temperature. The Airbnb is located walking distance to so many wonderful restaurants and the very fun Hillcrest area! Of course it’s always a plus for us when the Airbnb is dog friendly.
All in all, the place is affordable and with a few minor changes and better cleaning, it really could be a gem because of its location. Hoping for changes at this Airbnb so more people can enjoy the awesome Hillcrest area!
