This is by far the worst airbnb I have ever booked.
The Good: it is exactly how it is depicted in the pictures (the entrance from the photos is misleading your entry is actually on the far right hand side in the back of the home) and the location is very central to places you may need to get to (we were there for a soccer tournament and it was less than 30 minutes from each game location)
The Bad: For starters, there is absolutely no parking on the street. Another reviewer mentioned that they were allowed to park in the driveway (we were as well), but without this there would be no place nearby to park. Whoever is staying in the front house barely provided enough room for me to pull in, but by day 2 they moved the car which made it easier. When we first entered we were immediately hit by a very strong chemical cleaning smell that was truly unbearable. It was almost as if they wanted to prove to us that the place had been cleaned. There are no windows in the unit so we left the front door open for several hours (which didn't feel very safe) to try to air the location out. My daughter wanted to shower after her game and we immediately noticed that there was NO HOT WATER whatsoever. I had initially message Ernesto about the smell and request for more towels. There were only 2 relatively small and thin shower towels and another towel that was laying across the shower. Once we realized that there was no hot water I messaged about this as well. I ended up washing my daughter's hair in the sink. I got no response from Ernesto. After about 2 hours I tried to access help from airbnb. Airbnb asked if our problem had been and resolved and I told them we still hadn't heard anything. We left to get something to eat and when we returned 2 hours later there was a painter's bucket by the front door and upon entry the chemical smell was still extremely strong. Ernesto messaged suggested that we use the bucket to take a bath and said he would have to address the issue in the morning. My daughter woke up at 1:30 am and vomited her entire dinner. We had shared the same meal so I can only attribute it to her body reacting to the chemical smell. We left early and informed him that he could go in. He indicated that their main house also didn't have hot water. When we returned in the afternoon there was a wire on the ground by the stove letting me know someone had been inside. I checked the faucet and we had hot water. I did not receive a message indicating this until several hours later. We had planned to stay 3 nights but decided to leave early since her last game was over. I will say that by the last day the smell was still there but it had diminished. I informed Ernesto that we were leaving early and request a discount for the smell, my daughter getting sick and the NO HOT WATER for 24 hours. I never heard back from him.
Airbnb to follow up with him and he apparently agreed to refund me $35 and they gave me an additional $62.
If you're wondering, I did search for different accommodations, but it was during March Madness and everything available at the last minute was well over my price range on top of not knowing if I was going to get my money back from this rental.
Ernesto sent me a message stating he has never had these problems in his "135" bookings, which did not make our issues any less relevant, but if you believe our experience was an aberation then book away. I would just recommend bringing your own towels and if 2 flat pillows won't provide you with a restful night's sleep then bring your own pillows as well.
