Host tried to make me provide a negative Covid test in order to check in even though I told him I had no reason to believe I had a Covid exposure. Fortunately, Airbnb stepped in and told him he would have needed to have stated that in the booking (which he didn’t) and told him he couldn’t require it. It was not a comfortable position to be in two days before I had to travel. Took two stars off.
The area is convenient but just crossing the street into a bad area. Pan handlers all over and sketchy people hanging out across the street at the liquor store. Took one star off.
The final thing to make this a one star review is the door locking system. The host uses an August lock (I have an August lock at home). This system allows the host or anyone the host chooses entry into the home at anytime. This would not have been an issue if there was a way to manually lock the door inside the Airbnb with a deadbolt or other locking system. The only lock is the August lock which means the host can walk in at any time he chooses, day or night. I was not comfortable with this. Took one star off.
I would not stay with this host again.
