This was unfortunately one of the most disappointing stays I've had with Airbnb, and honestly makes me question the integrity of the platform. I was looking forward to coming back to my hometown and staying in a great location, but was quickly ruined after one night in a stale/hot room, with a flood light shining directly into the room making it near impossible to sleep.
The bathtub was filthy, and there are watermarks all over the ceiling, with almost every light falling out of the ceiling as well. Not to mention two massive bugs, which was the last straw.
There is a 6 foot tall window that is unhinged and thought it was going to fall directly on top of me.
None of the windows have screens, which is a serious safety issue for a first floor, street facing unit, especially in Chicago.
Communication with Tj was at the bare minimum, and I decided to leave after 1 night of a scheduled 3 night stay.
This listing was non-refundable, and after I canceled after 1 night, was immediately back on the market ready to be rented out. I feel cheated and lied to by this host and listing advertisement, and Frankly may never us the Airbnb platform again in the US - as the product is no longer a good value, or comfortable stay.
