We had the same encounters as Sam wrote in his review, April 2022.
The vertical blinds(VB) is so thin in the tiny front bedroom that makes sleeping impossible when the sun rises. People can see the room through the VB-gaps created by the incidental movement of the beddings. The weaved bed cover is dirty with countless runaway threads. The area floor coverings are old and wore-out. No window screens, the window frames got tiny spider webs. The list goes on & on ….
The toilet was clogged one evening when we returned. I called the host right away around 9pm, then waited, waited... after past midnight, the host said the plumber would come in the morning!! Unbearable experience😱 Next morning the host asked us to wait for the plumber! We had to call friends to delay gathering. It took the plumber 10 minutes to fix it after he arrived 9:30 am. He said it was caused by decades of the rusty pipe & told us he would provide a series of proposals to the host to solve the root problem.
Another day, I was in a meeting. Suddenly, the cleaners unlocked the door without knocking. I asked them to leave immediately. Contacted the host, never got a response. I also asked for a kettle to make tea, as Sam mentioned, "it takes about 40 minutes to boil water for tea". Never got a reply, never got a kettle.
Being an AIRBNBer for years, this was a new experience for sure. I hope this review would help fellow travelers’ to make an informed decision.
