Warning ⚠️ BE aware of rats 🐀!!!!!
At this AirBnB I have expirienced the most terrible stay. There were already cleaning challanges when we just moved in:
- towels with stains
- greacy microwave with crumbles
- shower curtain with mold and rust
- rats (more below)
- communication is bad (I was not able to reach via call, but was able to get answer in the app)
- noise because it is remodeled basement from water heater. If you like to sleep, this is a wrong place for you. It is remodeled basement, water heater, and fan foundation is located directly next to a bedroom and it is loud 24/7. I could hear it while in earplugs! The place has no windows and there were a lot of mosquitoes, but I would not reccomend opening the door, because it is directly next to garbage and it smells, has flies and a lot of rats.
- there was no loundry detergent, I had to buy new shower curtain, towels and loundry detergent to make it somewhat livable.
And when messaged the host about it, Kate told me "if you needed clean towels and working lamp, you should've told us". And this is after almost $100 cleaning fee.
Another challenge is the actual entrance, it is located in the back (not the picture on the listing), all apartments keep it's garbage where you will enter. When I tried entering the place at 8 pm there were 8 rats around garbage bins, and when I turned on the flashlight, even more came out!!!!!!!!!! Huge safety issue!!!🚫🚫🚫🚫
When I messaged host about rats, they said that they have been dealing with it for a while!!!! (no transparency and that information wasn't shared nowhere before booking the place), they called services and after couple of days the entire place was covered with dead rats. I had to hold my suite case in my hands.
Overall, if you are OK with rats, and loud place, if you bring your own towels and cleaning supplies, it will make the place livable. Also, the pictures on the listing are different from actual live.
