Going by the description and pictures, I expected this to be a great Victorian/ Edwardian studio with a beautifully landscaped garden and old-style fittings. But alas, I was tricked by what seemed to be a beautiful house.
The house itself is pretty and old, but what is being rented out is the basement of what was probably the servant quarters in olden days! It has very little lighting, very little ventilation. The kitchen appliances (fridge, stove, etc) are probably more than 30 years old.
To top it all, the door don't close as expected (it was claimed to be an antique having 'a mind of its own', but I wasn't ever able to close the entrance gate).
And let us not even think about the entrance. You have to open the gate and basically go through the service entrance. This is next to the dumpster and is filled with flies. The flies somehow find their way in through the bathroom too, so we had to battle a couple of flies every day.
Disgusting enough? Yes, that pretty much sums it up. For the price that I paid, I could have stayed in a comfortable hotel.
And if you have a car, then street parking is a pain. The nearest garage is a good 10 minute walk from the house.
I've been an AirBnB user before and have had a great experience at other places. However, this place by Atef is just not worth the money.
