After booking the unit Freddy was very responsive and provided us with check in instructions. He also made sure we received them as our booking was rather last minute. Freddy was very understanding and flexible with us, we had an issue upon check in (more details below) and he was quick to respond and provide a full refund when we requested it. I can definitely see why he's a super host and I would feel confident and comfortable booking with him in the future.
Now on to the issue we had with the place. When entering this Airbnb my girlfriend and I instantly got hit with a strong smell of mildew/stale water. Everything looked clean and there seemed to be no leaks anywhere. Upon further inspection we found mold buildup on and in the AC unit. We were only in the studio for 10-15 minutes and both of us were already having burning throats and had to check out due to health safety. Freddy was very understanding which we very much appreciate and is why we rate this Airbnb high. We have had lasting physical symptoms since being in the Airbnb and would not recommend staying here unless the AC unit has been completely replaced. Also we don't know if it was because of the day (New Orleans trash pick up is unreliable and inconsiderate) but there was a dirty diaper right outside of the unit, on the street close to the sidewalk, and as we got into the car we saw a rat scurry in front of the units. The inside of the studio was pleasant and what we did experience was comfortable.
