From the start, this was one of the most cumbersome process I've ever had when booking on Airbnb. They required for me to submit my ID for verification through another hosting company called Hosteeva. I thought that was a huge red-flag because if you don't agree with Airbnb's verification process, then why are you hosting on their site? Then they add your info to Hosteeva... Just really odd. Nowadays you have to be vigilant with your data to prevent ID theft. You dont find all of this out until after you book and there is no cancelation policy. So it's a veiled attempt to gain access to your information on your ID and move you to the Hosteeva platform.
The location was good. The apt wasn't very clean (dirty dishes, gritty floors). Updates are needed - rusty fixtures.
I don't plan to stay with his host/company again. I would've given it a 2 star but the location was good so 3 stars.
