We stayed at James’s place for 5 days, longer than your usual AirBnB, and because of that I think we experienced it differently versus other guests. We used things like the fridge, the stove, the kitchen’s pots/pans/utensils, the coffee maker, the washer/dryer in the basement because of our long stay duration. What was great was the bed, that bed was so comfortable. The coffee maker worked, the shower had good pressure, the fridge was cold, the stove worked (after we realized it needed to be reset, it wasn’t working at first so we used a lighter ignite the stove). It was relatively quiet and the TV/Netflix were nice. There was detergent and the washer/dryer was modern, it used cards for payment instead of coins. The problems started when we were cooking. We found a pan buried under scattered plastic bags in a cabinet, and it was unwashed because you can see the dry yellowness of scrambled eggs sticking to the pan. It was disgusting, indeed. We had to buy a pan for ourselves. There was also the utensils, many of them had bits of dried food stuck to them and we had to go to the store to buy a dish sponge (there weren’t any at the apartment) and washed it. We only used what we used for utensils, meaning the rest of the utensil drawer was speckled with old food. After this we made sure to wash anything we were going to use and had a clean collection that we exclusively used. The air conditioning works, however if you look at it the filter in it is stuffed with dust. I’m not sure when the last time it was cleaned, but definitely not recently. I was a bit uncomfortable knowing that dust was being blasted in the room. Lastly, we had to get things like toilet paper because there was a tiny, 2-day worth left in the bathroom and there was no refill to be found (found the paper towels, though). All of these issues were addressed to James at the time of our stay, and he was great and prompt about solving the issues. He came in during the same day we encountered the issues and brought a bag of clean pans and apologized. He mentioned that since he doesn’t charge a cleaning fee, he expects the guests to clean up after themselves as it’s in his rules. He has cleaners but they don’t look at the utensil drawer or the deliberately hidden, dry egg-covered pan in a cabinet. We took that answer however we still feel that these should have been discovered sooner. I get that some guests don’t even use the utensil drawer during their stay because of the short time they have in there, but nearly all of the utensils in there had some form of food stuck in them, so it didn’t seem like a fault of the last recent guest. We feel that, even if the rules of cleanliness are set and guests...
