We were looking for a cheap Airbnb that wouldn’t break the bank. When we put in the address for Inez’s place, the Uber driver had difficulty finding it because the address number was not well lit and not obvious. I did not know that there were check in instructions until we arrived. We went to the wrong building during a rainstorm and realized that we had to go to the rear to find it. You can imagine my confusion when we had to carry our belongings through an extremely narrow alley that was maybe 2-3 feet wide. I had trouble fumbling with the lockbox and the doorknob. I didn’t know it would be so challenging to check in!
Inez’s place is very spacious and comfortable. The couch and TV made it feel like home. We enjoyed the free Netflix and Prime videos. What we didn’t enjoy was how cold the place was. We couldn’t find the thermostat to turn off the freezing A/C. We just plugged in the heaters provide instead. The beds were okay and the bathroom could be better; they just seem old and in need of renovation.
During our stay, we smelled marijuana coming from the vents and notified the host right away. Inez didn’t realize the smoke was coming into the place and apologize for smoking. Even though she said it wouldn’t happen again, we continued to smell marijuana. Fortunately, we stayed just 2 nights and we had enough.
This place did the job and was okay. You get what you pay for. We will NOT be staying here next time. No hard feelings, just speaking the truth.
