Not a good experience. Where to begin?
- NO ELEVATOR. FOUR FLIGHT WALK UP WITH HEAVY LUGGAGE! HORRIBLE STEEP STAIRS. The ad should have made this explicit. And they were working on the stairwell and hallway when we had to check out and drag the luggage down.
- Red key for opening the door to the street BARELY WORKED. You had to mess with it and jiggle it and twist it until you lucked out and it would unlock. It sometimes took 10 minutes to be able to get in! VERY ANNOYING.
- The window near the bed FELL OUT INTO THE ROOM a couple times - VERY DANGEROUS. There is evidence of a crappy cheap attempt to tape it in place, which is UNACCEPTABLE. This apt should be delisted until this is properly fixed. Luckily there was blue tape in a drawer - I used it to help secure the window - I was afraid it would fall on my head in the middle of the night!
- Misleading photos - the place is NOT a one bedroom - it's a long thin studio - should have been made clear in the description
- Place was dirty. Fan in front of the bed was filthy. Cubbies were dirty.
- ONLY TWO TOWELS?? SERIOUSLY?? VERY CHINSY.
- Clearly an illegal listing. We had to pick up the key at a dry cleaner across the street, and we were instructed not to mention Airbnb to anyone we met in the building - we were told just to say "we're friends of Jase"
