Before I booked this room, I read the reviews. It's hard to believe they were so complimentary.
I can not even give 1 star. We left before spending one night. Before checking out, we explored the area, but while we were out, I grew more and more uncomfortable with this B and B.
I did not ask for a refund and I do not want one. I knew that the cancellation policy was 5 days prior to arrival.
I was not honest with the host and I should have been, but I did not want a confrontation and wanted to leave as soon as we got back to our room. There was little to no lighting to get into the home. Very poorly lit front door and it felt unsafe after dark. The door to get into the apartment was difficult to open and close. The living area extremely dusty and unkept. Master Bedroom also very dusty and unkept. The linens were very worn and not fresh. 2 flat pillows were on the bed. Bathroom was clean, but there were used soaps in a dish which I found to be unsanitary. We could lock our bedroom door from the inside, but we were not able to lock it when we left. This is NOT acceptable.
The host appeared nervous and uncomfortable.
This is a case of "you get what you pay for" However, I have stayed in many Bed and Breakfast at a similar rate and I have never stayed anywhere as dirty and unsafe feeling as this. I have rented a small apartment in Paris that was less than this per night and it was excellent!
I did not expect this to be the Ritz Carlton, but I did expect a clean environment and to feel safe.
It is doubtful that I will ever use AirBandB again.
Fortunately our weekend was not ruined by this experience, but it would have been we had stayed there.
The hosts cat Kitty was the best part of the B ad B. A very lovely cat.
