What I liked: the house is beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen has coffee and tea and lots of things to cook with. High ceilings, room is bright and airy with a ceiling skylight. Bathroom is clean, has shampoo and soap and body wash. Host provided a towel. The apartment is well decorated, it's got art and nice array of amenities. The host responds quickly and communicates his expectations clearly.
What I disliked: when I got there and tried to make friendly conversation, the host complained that he doesn't like having people in his space and doesn't enjoy being an AirBnB host - more like, he does it because he has to. He stated that he doesn't want or like having company, and generally conducted himself a superficially sweet manner that was clearly condescending and passive aggressive. It was very clear that he didn't want me (or anyone) around from the moment I arrived. I found it rude, unwelcoming, and uncomfortable. Nobody likes to feel like they're encroaching on another's space or that they're unwanted in someone's home, especially after climbing up four flights of stairs. I would have appreciated a greater effort on the host's part to to create an environment of hospitality and friendliness to make guests feel welcome in his presence.
