I could hear the neighbor shitting through the floorboards.
When we arrived, the AirBnB was not cleaned: towels on the bathroom floor, messed up sheets, full trash cans, etc. To John’s credit, he responded quickly and had it cleaned immediately, in addition to waiving the cleaning fee. However, the walls and floors are basically nonexistent. My boyfriend and I were in the middle room, and felt as though we were sharing a room with another couple who we could not see. It is no exaggeration to say that I could hear, with explicit clarity, the tenants below us planning out their bus routes and living their lives.
I’ve used AirBnB many times, and now I know it is not fair to assume privacy. If you don’t mind thin walls and want a cheap option, this will suffice. But when I heard someone farting through the floorboards, I can’t say that I thought that the price was worth it.
