I left the first night I got there. Keypad entry isn’t secure if you place the key to the room hanging on the wall to a multi-room building, one foot inside the￼￼ hallway. Especially if the woman sitting on the step smoking, going in and out doesn’t always close the door.
I parked and unpacked. After an hour I went to get gas and and on the way out the￼ front door of the building was open with a stranger sitting on the front step. I contacted the Host and suggested he tell the other guests which he did.
When I returned, a neighbor from across the street joined her on the step and the door was re-opened.
The￼ common, unlocked areas of the building for the three guests are the kitchen and bathroom. Which means when I leave my locked room upstairs, if the front door of the building is open, an trespasser, with/without a mask can enter and stay downstairs in the kitchen since the apartments are upstairs or in one of the bathrooms upstairs.
I contacted the Host and airbnb and the host offed to relocate me but I requested a refund and wasn’t taking another chance there would be another problem with one of Host’s other properties. I was told this was an issue between myself and the Host. At 11pm at night, after￼ a 3 hour drive, with 5,pieces of luggage I just left.
While I was climbing over the neighbor from across the street, sitting on the step he said, “you leaving, you just got here?” I had to eat the $297.00. I wasn’t going to risk my health or safety. I left Jersey City for a hotel for 2 nights and then booked another airbnb.
