It was my worst experience ever!
No instructions on how to get into the apartment. I texted the host and she didn't reply even until I left. We were locked outside at the building for an hour and luckily one of the residents came back home so we can get in after a long wait. That was the early evening period in the winter of NYC. You can imagine how cold it was. And the host wasnever showed up.
After we got in, we found that it is not the same as posted. (I want to show my photos badly.) The apartment is very very very dirty, noisy at midnight, and smells of hemp. You do not want to touch anything at all. I am not a clean freak. Just unacceptable
Most importantly, an unexpected man was there the whole time. I experienced 3 times in just 3 days that a homeless wanted to get in to the building when I stepped out. I feel unsafe the whole time with my teenage daughter.
The worst and most unsafe experience I ever have had with Airbnb. This place should not be listed and rented out.
