Gross! Don't stay here! The host cleaned but the permanent dirt and mildew stains were everywhere. The apartment is run down and in desperate need of repairs but it does not show in the cleverly taken photos. The walls have permanent dirt stains and cracks everywhere... and judging by the old style oil paint, have not been painted in 30-40 years. The ceiling in the bedroom has unrepaired water damage and therefore a large cracked plaster/paint bubble. The worst is the bathroom with an extremely worn down porcelain bathtub with both the bathtub and grout black with mildew stains and the ceiling covered in brown mold spots. The bathroom sink has large rust stains and should be replaced. The kitchen had very old appliances (fridge, stove, microwave) with etched in dirt stains the host can obviously not scrub off. The apartment building itself is very old, smelly and run down with people leaving garbage bags in the hallway. I would suggest the host refinish and re-grout the porcelain bathtub (I did mine it costs around $300); repaint all the walls; fix water damage in the ceiling; and eventually buy new appliances. You share the apartment with someone living in the living room with a curtain over the living room entrance. Looks like people with very modest means rent this apartment out on Air BnB. It was gross and disgusting. You can do better even if you are on a budget. I don't understand the other rave reviews... be careful maybe those were done by friends or people who have much lower standards than you.
