This place was really cute & instagramable! But that’s pretty much all I liked about this stay— the host is cold. The airbnb is not really in the best area, the buildings kinda grimey & there’s no private/free parking. The host did have someone save us a spot in the front of the building so that was really nice but was gone as soon as we left to get food. Upon arrival we were really thirsty but all the water bottles in the fridge looked like they were refilled/seals broken. The bathroom door gets caught on the toilet sometimes and there’s no hooks to hang anything on so had to just put my jacket on the sink. The bedrooms simple and cute but the beds springy and squeaky… same for most furniture in the place, it’s just showy and not super comfy.
I think the worst part of the stay tho was Salwahs incessant messages about “THE RULES”. In every single message there were about 20 rules about staying in her place, the ones with the check in message sounded almost threatening tbh. Things like “don’t answer door/knocks, if someone asks say youre related to my fiance” ??? Like what.“Take your own trash out- put it in the garbage shoot” what is the cleaning fee for ? “don’t leave any food out on counter during stay” “don’t eat on the blue couch” “dont “dont put tv volume over 30” “don’t unplug anything or you’ll get fined” LIKE BRO ?? She had me nervous to do anything.
I’m a stack-plates-waiter-type-person so I make sure I leave things orderly and was nice to her in messages but her tone and unending rules list left a very bad taste in my mouth. I hope she can warm up a little and improve her stay with these suggestions bc it is a cute place but it’s all looks for now.
