Fantastic view, nice host.
However, the absurdities of the hotel were evident. I ordered grocery delivery and the front desk was apparently not wanting to let him park out front to run things up. I asked a bellhop if he could use a cart and they wanted to charge a $20 fee. Instead I had to go down and help carry things up, despite having spine damage and weight limitations which is why I ordered delivery to begin with.
Additionally, even food delivery was met with a “meet in lobby due to security issues” yet any other person would walk past them and access the elevators.
Every night some units smoked pot and the room would be filled with the smell. Not a big deal unless you’re allergic to it, like I am.
Nice, posh place, but there was no attention to detail for upkeep. Multiple lights were out and not replaced, electrical sockets hanging out, the battery for the safe was low which prevented use of it, and the refrigerator/freezer didn’t get cold enough to keep my food from rapidly going bad.
Overall the host was quick to respond but I didn’t want to have to message constantly when I’m out there to enjoy vacation. I think upkeep is a vital part of any Airbnb and this one definitely needed some touch ups.
