At the very beginning I would like to mention positive side such as location- it was close to subway good link to other parts of NYC. Check in was quick and fuss free!
Apart from this two facts we got pretty much disappointed, and probably won’t come back to Dora’s apartment and choose another AirBnb or hotel over it.
When we arrived the apartment was unfortunately not very clean, floor was sticky, microwave, oven, fridge weren’t clean- also cutlery, glasses, plates weren’t clean. In oven I found dirty, greasy oven tray. Appliances were dusty. Gas hob was dusty, and greasy as well. Sofa/ couch has crumbs on and under pillows. TV Stand has been not fully straight to wall. Bedding didn’t smell like freshly changed- it smelled like someone sleep on it before us- carpet in bedroom wasn’t vacuumed- neither the floor. In bathroom; toilet, mirror, and sink hasn’t been cleaned- there were hairs on toilet and sink(they were black so for sure not ours as we both has fair hair) mirror has got toothpaste and water marks on it, lampshades and extractor were very much dusty. Shower was ok- it needed rinsing before use tho.- no one really check it before our arrival if it meet basic cleanliness standards.
We would like also to mention missing light in bathroom over the shower.
Host didn’t really care about us- didn’t check if everything is ok at any point until we sent a message with information we’re gonna check out early because early flight.
Fridge doors are unable to fully open as well as oven doors.- they’re way too close to wall/ furniture.
Front doors were catching the floor when Opening. Missing screws in plug holders, some plug sockets were pretty dangerous- as pushed in at odd angle.
Bed was pretty much uncomfortable we can say it was very firm like a rock. And we just got thin blanket/ sheets when outside one night was about 10 Celsius degrees.
Apartment is actually a basement, all steps and voices as well as washing machine were easy to hear- very thin walls.
We’re really sad we got that much inconveniences at our first Airbnb ever. :(
