My partner and I stayed at this Airbnb for 1 week and we found our experience at this Airbnb to be ok for the relatively low cost. There were some things that went well and some areas that could use improvement.
Needs Improvement:
1. The first thing we noticed is that the apartment from the listing is not the apartment we were in. The apartment pictured is considerably bigger and brighter - a lot of the same furniture, but a completely different layout. I would highly recommend the host be honest with guests and update the pictures.
2. Related to the first, the apartment is on the first floor and all the windows face an alley which can be noisy and have people passing through and being disruptive.
3. Check- in/check-out process was ok, however you are made to sign a contract outside of airbnb and upload photos of yourself and your ID. My only issue with the contract was there was miscellaneous fees that I've never seen a hotel or Airbnb charge for - example: locking yourself out of the apartment fee $150. We weren't charged any fees but I imagine things could add up if any mistakes were made or contract wasn't followed to a tee.
4. Overall apartment was clean, but dishes weren't very clean and dishwasher was full of dirty dishes upon our arrival.
Positives:
1. Security at front door
2. Responsive hosts.
3. Nice property overall - including a good gym.
4. Close to restaurants, groceries, etc.
5. Comfy beds
6. Well equipped apartment (dishes, coffee, washer/dryer etc)
